    Workplace vapers - Best SUCCESSFUL arguments FOR vaping at work

    To be honest, I am way more worried about the company and the policy than other people and their problems with it. I just assume everyone is an adult, until proven otherwise. People that like to stir up trouble and are that petty will always find something to complain about. It affects nobody...

    Workplace vapers - Best SUCCESSFUL arguments FOR vaping at work

    lol. I'm not sure I could use the nebulizer thing with a straight face. "Its my medicine". And if I was having breathing issues every 15 minutes or so might be a give away. I think the president is approachable and wouldn't care, but HR, I haven't had to deal with HR since 1996. Last thing I...

    don't you look like a (MODERATED) when they see you? seriously, in the movie theater, I get it, no problem. I have my own office, but when it comes down to it, any body can walk through that door at any time, I would just freak if I was vaping and the president walked in mid vape. Really hate...

    Workplace vapers - Best SUCCESSFUL arguments FOR vaping at work

    can I ask you where I can find out exactly what "no nicotine" means, the specific law this ... clown passed? seems like it may have a loophole or two if nicotine orally via gum is ok, but orally via vapor is not? same with a patch, it's still nicotine. thanks man.

    Workplace vapers - Best SUCCESSFUL arguments FOR vaping at work

    I'm not holding my breath, no pun intended. If I can swing it cool, if not, won't freak me out. I'm used to being a minority non conformist, but I am compiling some notes for Monday morning, plan on using some of this as a conversation topic. that and the fact that I have tried for YEARS to quit...

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    lol. I didn't really expect you to crunch the numbers. thanks though. Knew the government was stealing, just didn't know exactly how much. now add in "local" government taxes, county, city and borough, the distributors, and their mark up and I think the number comes down even more. Just saying...

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    I would have to question that figure of "cost" being $6.53. the tax per pack also. I've never actually pulled the stats, so hey, maybe I'm wrong, but I am almost certain that the tax figure you are referring to is only "one" tax figure. Really not trying to be argumentative, at all. there are...

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    Still think the big loser here is the 800 pound gorilla in the room, the government tax man, and their constant need to feed their spending habits. Any threat to that revenue is a big problem for them. The cost of a pack of cigarettes is mere pennies, the bulk of what is paid is the tax, it...

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    for what it's worth, not only did it, passed it along to 4 non forum people to do also. in the end though, I'm afraid it's not about right versus wrong, it's all about the money to these "people", and I use the term loosely.

    how much "stuff" is too much stuff?

    you know, I've noticed that, people defend junk....and crappy vendors... and I agree, I bought some of this stuff because the unit before was junk, not to have 2 of everything, or start a vaping museum. And the fact I'm married means I have to buy 2 of everything. Some we both agree we like...

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    Actually, the greatest drop in revenue is from the taxes. the governments cut. and they WANT it, in a big way. The actual cost of smokes is a fraction of the price paid, but they sure did have return customers. The regulation is what will be used by them to keep the control over production...

    how much "stuff" is too much stuff?

    true, true, but eventually the bike gets done, and becomes "old faithful", and that's how she stays,... until the next overhaul. and yes, Harleys plural makes it even tougher. I think there is another benefit to these, you can actually use them on the bike without pulling over to spark up, and...

    lol. it's the "within reason" part I am having to justify to myself. lol. nobody gets out alive, that is for sure.

    Sorry, Big Tobacco...

    I don't and never did feel sorry for them. I was always more upset with the HUGE sin taxes than the habit. I knew what I was doing, they didn't force me to make the choice to smoke. I knew it was addictive, and I knew it was destructive as hell. nobody screwed me but me, and the government... I...
