Discrimination against Smokers?  Stewart75: You can't smoke in offices/clubs/pubs in Australia............. so it makes perfect sense.............. they spend far too much time going outside for their hourly fix...................... Kick the stupid habit............... Dennae: PS I'm not trying to start a war or anything. Just interested on people's view from both sides of the fence. Any input appreciated. Dennae: I have been and quite frankly, I may be again. I don't think there is anything such animal as an "ex-addict" to any substance be it nicotine, alcohol or illegal drugs. Just the ongoing willpower to stay away from them. But this thread was more of a "What do people think of the subject" Was just asking for opinions from both sides. I am currently writing a questionnaire to cover the issue and was hoping WireClub Forum-ers (is that a word?) would help me get inspired Stewart75: Your topic is referring to 'Discrimination against Smokers'......... is it not...?.............. I wouldn't call it 'discrimination'............. I would call it perfect sense............ Like, why employ someone who wastes 10 minutes every hour going outside for a smoke............ if someone equipped with equal skills comes along for the interview......... who isn't gonna waste this time............. Think about it................. it makes perfect sense................ AnywayZ............ smoking nicotine is for losers anyway................ like why bother...?............... Edit: So you're thinking of starting again, Dennae...?............ (Edited by Stewart75) Mask Of Dionysus: Yes, we smokers are discriminated. Awww you don't like the habit? Who cares? You don't do it so shut up! If we go down this route then we can all discriminate people who always chew gum. Bad habit, stop it! Mask Of Dionysus: I don't smell like that. I am with a non-smoker. There is this wonderful new invention called 'Cologne'  harlett: ahhhh the lies we  fools will tell ourselves........... i smell like c-i -regrett.. 24/7 noooo matter what....... harlett: well.... well.....i am a heterosexual............whose non spouse brings her a carton of c- i- regretts every week as a reward for never leaving the house and property... Stewart75: Mask person.............. if that's your argument.............. you're a moron............ See ya............... Mask Of Dionysus: I am a moron because I told the truth about the negative effects of chewing gum??? ......that is ok, Stew.........in your lands, i am called a Wog harlett: ah ha ha ha ha.3? years for me and mine.....it's nice having the  of men in common...and of course our  Aura: Well you don't really know the reason behind the non smokers requirement, maybe a valued employee is very allergic to smoke and they don't want him or her to go into breathing problems every time you come back from your cigarette break. harlett: crumb bunnies... i do believe there is a office some where where folks have been banned from any kind of deodorant from some ones allergic reaction.... Mask Of Dionysus: Zen, I get reactions from perfume. Tsk Tsk tsk, these people wearing perfume is not good! It is horrible for health! STOP THAT. Mask Of Dionysus: AND btw............there is something much worse than nicotine that everyone breaths in daily - car exhaust. Dennae: Stewart - It's my crutch against stress. some people use maryjane, some alcohol, mine is nicotine.
