I go outside with the smokers with an 808 that looks like a black cigarette. But the people I go smoke with know what I'm doing and hope it works for me.

Everywhere else I use an eGo-T with a ce4 but at work I'm afraid people would think I'm some kind of drug addict and that wouldn't fly. I do stealth with it in the bathroom tho because I prefer it to the 808.

I do, but it is super secret lockdown stealth. vaping is banned at the hospital I work in. I knew this was gonna happen before I started working there so I made sure to never ever let anyone know I vaped during the one month I worked there when vaping was legal. I always go to the one holer bathroom and vape in there. I carefully planted the "I have a small bladder" seed in their brains the first day I started working there. That way my frequent "pee" breaks were expected.

I did have 1 patients family that knew I vaped though. When I went in the room to pass meds, I noticed a charger with an 18650 batt in it. I knew what it was most likely for.....I have the same set up......and asked what they were charging a batt for. The patients sister said "oh I am a vaper.......I promise I won't do it in the room". I smiled at her and asked what mod she used and she smiled back and whipped out her purple silver bullet with a super sweet tank. I showed her my silver vein sb and we were instant comrades. I told her no one in the hospital knew my secret, and I knew she wouldn't tell. We swapped quitting smoking and vaping stories over the next few hours. It was so awesome!! I wish I had someone else in my life that vaped that I could talk to in person. We don't even have a brick n mortar here in Kansas city.

Sometimes it makes me sad that I have to be so secretive about it. I am proud, and my husband is proud that I am 22 months stinkie free. Maybe someday I can come out of the vaping closet.

Concerning my confiscated mini, when I inquired, I was told they discarded it. Apparently it fell into contraband of electronic devices. However the head of my department had seen me vaping a few weeks ago and asked a few questions about it. I was not told to not vape. But the guy that followed me is a snake.

Vape all the time at work and have actually become more productive and more accessible to my staff, because of it (no need to find a hidden corner several blocks away to smoke, vape in my office or when eating lunch outside). Have already converted one of my staff members. Most folks don't know I vape (my office is fairly secluded) and that's fine with me. My smoking colleagues have wondered where I've been (no longer in the "group huddle" so to speak) and I'll show them my PV which gets them interested and asking questions which is great.

"..discarded it..." That's terrible!

Since it's been approved to smoke, me and my team vaping in the office. Since we have deadline and all our big boss don't mind because he said the office smells good. Most of us vape on fruit flavour. As long to keep most of us rather than missing from the workplace, we vape all day long.. :D

I work in a hospital also.. in the OR.. our hospital is a "non smoking campus" but I have no idea about vaping. There are 3 private bathrooms that I visit whenever I get a chance. I don't blow clouds of vapor in case someone comes along right after I leave. No one knows :D

Sounds like the snake is due some serious payback!

I vape at work whenever I need to.

I work at an FAA Repair Station. The town we are located in doesn't have any smoking regulations for businesses, but with the flammables we use it would be stupid to smoke in the shop.

Several of my co-workers, including my boss have switched to e-cigs and a few others are trying to make the switch.

When it's over 100 outside (like it has been all week here) it makes being able to vape inside look much more appealing.

We only have one guy who swears he won't even try to vape. He claims he prefers to smoke "the real thing." Meanwhile, he's having to buy cheapo flavored cigars because he can't afford to buy even a cheap pack of cigs.

Eh, 20 year olds, they know everything.

I vape at work everyday, and bring several different mods. I work for the" most recognizable software provider. Vaping there is like a disease, in the sense that everyone catches on and trades in their analogs for mods. One by one, we are slowly building our own internal vaping community.

This makes me jealous. I'm the only vaper I know!
