As the husband of a 1st grade teacher, don’t buy her any school related stuff unless she specifically asks for it. It’s about the equivalent of buying a stay at home wife a dishwasher. I would encourage you to try and find something that is of her interest to help her escape her day job. Being a school teacher is hard and they deserve to have time to enjoy there lives outside of school. Best of luck to you and yours. Cheers!!

Nothing is happening on my desk\tables out of the ordinary :P

I wasn't looking for the grippy bottom or anything, i just went to reorder the plain stainless one i had gotten before off amazon and they had added some features that were a bit different compared to most other tumblers.

I'm sure the rubber grip on the bottom might never save a spilt drink if it ever came down to it but maybe it will.

Piece of shit.

First, having the ground pin at the bottom is inherently less safe than the converse.

Second, cheapo 6 gang things are just asking for some dipshit to come along and overload stuff.

Third, as mentioned by /u/costabius, surge protectors have short finite lifetime.
