Do You Vape at Work?

[superstardj]

Yes I vape all day at my office. As the owner i can get away with it ))

I vape in front of customers and of course it almost always starts an interesting conversation.

I do stealth vape in my office and no one complains. Mainly as when I do it is out of hours. I don't really have fixed work times.

There is an e-cig policy in the company so in work hours outside I trot with the smokers. Never used a cigalike so they know the score when my ProVari or VMod appears lol

Recently had a change of manager to a guy who is based out of state who was surprised to see a mod when I popped outside and he came to find me. Led to a 3 minute chat but he was relaxed.

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.

You two should petition the hospital to allow vaping.

I work mostly out of the house now, so I could vape at home, but I rarely do. I enjoy vaping in places where smoking is prohibited because it helps to "normalize" e-cigs in indoor public places. I've seldomly been to the office this year, and I haven't vaped in there yet. That's because I've either forgotten my PV at home OR I had a meeting and I didn't want to cause a distraction with my large clouds of vapor. When I'm doing presentations for customers, I never vape because I'm constantly talking, and once again it would be a distraction to my customer.

I'm planning to vape inside when I go to the office next week though. I will be there for a long period of time.

I work at the manheim auto auction and Vape in the office all the time. My co workers don't mind but won't try out my pv or see if it'll work for them. One is talking about the dreaded chantix, but if it works for him...all the power to him I say

I work at a hotel, mostly "on the desk" in the eyes of our paying guests. Perception being everything in this business, I don't vape on the job. I still go outside on my breaks, why some might ask, because I work indoors 8 - 14 hours a day, I want, nay need my fresh air exposure. Our outside break area is half smoking, half non. I sit kind of on the edge most of the time. I get questions. Unless I'm in a "need my peace" mood, I'll gladly answer. Already got one of the restaurant guys to goto the local store and buy a PV. Others are getting more and more interested now since I have gone 7 weeks. About to get one of our concierge to try it. She's an after meal smoker. Gonna point her to the Volt I think. She has maybe a total of 4 cigarettes a day.

I have vaped in our "back office" area a couple of times just in a demonstration type manner to show some nonsmoking coworkers how it actually works. I had a very strong coffee flavor in at the time, and they were all gaga over the smell. I mostly use 18 or 24mg on breaks so I don't get too many nicfits while working, but if I do, I'll grab a puff or two in the bathroom to get me by.

All in all I don't mind going out near the smoking area. The smell doesn't bother me as much as it did when I first switched and well, smoking was a social habit as well. I like out break time conversations a bunch of us would have and if I didn't go outside when I do, I would miss on catching up with people.

Hi,

That's my main reason for not stopped smoking already. We have a smoking area at the office but I don't feel comfortable vaping there and have all the other people looking at me. It's my problem, I know and a have to overcome that.

Only one other guy vape here that i know of and he vapes in the stairs.

Join him! Start your own vaping area.

I vape infront of my co-workers they were so amazed i managed to have a couple of them to get into vaping

I never have it out of my mouth, I use it in the office, in my van, in the shops I deliver to, in the loading bay everywhere.

I was sat in my van while vaping today when a police car pulled up at the lights right next to me, he gave me a funny look but couldn't do anything... I was laughing hard on the inside

I vape in my office nobody says anything I don't do it when people come in my office or in a users cubicle or office or walking down the halls and I wouldn't do it in front of the facilities manager because I'm not sure how she would feel about it. I still go out with the smokers just to get some air and away from my desk it's funny the reactions I get from my provari with a 3ml carto tank on it. "is that legal" "is that dope" "is that a hooka" and the guy that introduced me to e-cigs back in 2008 is still smoking he seems pretty interested in my provaris I think I'm going to convert him back

I Vape all day at work. My boss knows but I keep it low profile so no one has the chance to complain lol i have heard everything from it smells like pee in here to smells like maple syrup to air Freshener....

Sometimes I forget and blow a huge cloud and someone walks by and says discreetly are you smoking in here? I laugh and then it launches into a huge conversation asking me if it works how it works and everybody has someone they have in mind for one.....then how much?

ECF should pay me as a spokesperson!

When it comes to money questions first thing I say DON'T BUY ONE FROM THE MALL LOL.....!!!

I vape at work but only at my locker at break time. I might get a coworker back in to vaping tomorrow i'm going to lend him a grand for a day or two. I just put a 306 cisco 1.5ohm on it with a clear drip tip and filled it up with some watermelon
