Anybody sneaking vapes at work?

[ElectraGlide]

I've been at this for a week (a week without analogs) and I'm doing it at work when no one is looking. My boss happened to see vapor rising from my cubicle and I told him it was my tomato soup that was giving off the steam. He bought it hook, line, and sinker!

Nice save lol.

I decided vaping at work while in the break room was ok, it was a ballsy move since I work at a hospital that recently banned tobacco products on the property.

As long as I am doing my job and nobody else if affected I don't see a problem with it. I don't hide my vaping on breaks but I also don't walk down the halls vaping lol.

I figure that vaping is borderline at the workplace. If I am ever confronted about vaping inside while on break I will simply start going outside with smokers.

:raises hand: -- I work in a government health facility, so *sneak* is the right word... Luckily I have cubicle walls, and can usually hear people around me.

I blow it under the cabinet in the hopes it doesn't rise above the cubicle.

I vape all the time during work. Its gotten much harder lately though after they've installed new HD security cameras. Its tough not to think about smoking though when you work at a warehouse that distributes cigarettes and e-cigarettes.

Most people don't even give it a second thought unless you're billowing clouds of vapor.

If you can hold it in for an extra second, cut down on the exhalation vapor by around 50%, most people don't even notice/second guess it if you're acting normally and inconspicuously.

I happen to have a very lax environment where I work, meaning I'm usually the only one there. I just don't vape into customers faces and everything is fine.

me, me!! I crouch down at my station and vape quick, then blow it under the station. haha! I also take it with me to the bathroom and vape a few times there... so far noone seems to notice, and if they did they don't care! haha

Yeah, since that incident with my boss, I now exhale it straight down in front of me or just let it out thru my nose slowly. I work with a guy who has "quit' analogs for the umpteenth time but always starts up again, especially when going to the bar with buddies that smoke. I openly showed it to him at work in his office and he even took a hit off it. The flavor was 555 and he liked it - a lot! I'm convinced that he will get one when he fails his quit, just like I always did.

 

[Ragamuffin]

yes! I"ve been doing it in the bathroom a couple times a day for the heck of it. Not even really craving it, just bored at work and nothing better to do to pass the time. Although, I honestly think it is a bad idea overall, since I don't think many employers will allow vaping where smoking isn't permitted. So far, no one has even mentioned it. I don't let anyone see it, but no one has said "hey, what is that strong cinnamon smell? Or Eggnog smell? or English Toffee smell?"

Why not exhale into a a small towel while at your cube and keep a low profile?

Wow! I feel completely lucky that where I work (global fortune 1000 company) I sit at my desk and go to town!! My boss actually thinks it's kind of cool...especially since I'm not trying to sneak outside for an analog anymore. That was one thing that used to get him fired up. Now my cubicle has plumes rising all day like an old way of giving smoke signals! I actually bought a PT just to use at work since I'm a chain vapor there

I work in the IT department of this company so I'm up an moving around quite a bit...almost everyone that works around me knows the story and they often come by to see what "flavor of the day" I have in my tornado.

I've even turned 2 others to vaping at work as well...tho they are full timers yet, they still go back to the analog a few times a day. Baby steps I tell them.....Baby steps

I work at a college and most of the kids know about the ecig.
My bosses dont really say anything we have about 7 or 8 people there right now who all do it during work or as we work.
Its really no big deal every1 seems to know.
No sneaking where i work just vape away.

 

[Bubbakinns]

Yep, blowing it under the desk works for me! I don't think many people would have a problem with it but just to be safe I just do it on the sly, or in the bathroom, or break room etc....

Thankfully we've got a small collective of employees here who vape plus one manager, so as long as it doesn't affect what we're doing we're allowed to vape

 

[KeepNitReel]

I vape all day at work with no problems, clouds of thick vapor pour from my mouth and the boss always says "that is .......***g amazing! The smokers are ...... because they gotta go to the cafe to smoke..hahaha!!! They all say they want one but when they all get a pack of analogs free everyday it's hard to make the switch. Yes I work for big tobacco, I pass vending machines full of free analogs all day everyday.

I would think the more accurate thing to ask is is anyone NOT vaping at work.

 

[BongoBob]

I work at the airport. I'll go outside where it's a posted smoking area and vape freely.. but when i'm working the ticket counter or the gate, i'll sneak below the counter for a quick stealth vape.

Wow the responses are awesome here. I do tend to sneak in the bathroom for a few vapes. Did it in the break room a few times and got tons of questions. I swear most people just cant fathom the concept. Eh what evs...

A soda cup with straw and ice works pretty good for stealth exhales too, and it's pretty incognito.

A friend of mine took his straight to his boss and asked permission to use it in the break room. After an explanation of the product and how it worked, the boss asked, "Does it burn?" NO. "Is this to help you quit smoking?" YES. The bos okayed it immediately. Turns out that the company plans to launch a quit-smoking initiative for its employees, so it was well-timed to boot.

We don't have a break room - I just pop into the bathroom for a moment to sneak a vape. It's tons easier than trying to figure out a good time to go outside for a vape break.

That's what's nice about vaping at work - more productivity! I can get my nicotine in more frequent doses (keeping me more alert), while actually spending LESS time away from my job. You're saving your employer money by vaping!
