That ban on smoking in the workplace might be a something of a chore.
I smoke in work, in my office, so do some of my employees in a room I've set aside for that purpose. I don't mind them smoking at all. Will I have smoking police checking on me, I wonder.
That'll be weird.
if you work in a small company you decide whether to abide or not.
now that i come to think of it - i have never in my life seen an employee of walmart,sears, sainsburies etc etc smoking a fag at work
Ah, that's alright then. We'll carry on smoking in work 'til I quit (again) and make them all stop smoking in work (again).Quote:

Like people can quit drinking.
The English MPs wimped out and diluted the legislation.
Not so in Alba.
That's why I said some pubs.Quote:

DOUBlé POST!!! :w00t:
Nobody really knows what "food-free" pubs actually means. It could be, that if you sell crisps, nuts & pork scratchings, you are not a food-free pub... :blink:Quote:

I can see it now. It'll be like the Probation again. There'll be speakeasies that sell bootleg Sunday roasts.
They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way, and that's how you get Capone.
It's mostly a loss leader in smaller pubs, anyhow.Quote:

You should have a choice and I don't go to a smoke free place unless I'm with the kids or going to a movie .
Use to smoke while working the lines @ the boys soccer games 5 years ago but would n't think of doing now . Were a dying breed in more ways than one .
my local erm, i dont remember which my local is, there's about 100 drinking establishments within less than half a mile of here
