I vape everywhere I go. In the movie theater, in a restaurant, at the grocery store. The only place where people make a big deal is during the sermon at church. Thankfully there seem to be no shortage of churches around here, so I just go to a new one each week.

I'm kidding, of course.

I've been vaping since March or April and aside from vape shops I have not seen a single person vaping in public. So I just vape in my truck and hope nobody sees.

LOL..That was funny
I usually vape alone in my vehicle myself. All these shiny toys and no one to admire..

I vape all over the place, anywhere outside or inside if smoking is allowed, if smoking isn't allowed I always ask the owner or management first and if granted permission I vape away. I vape big mods too, only 18650s and up need apply. I don't censor my vaping either, no holding it in or shorter drags just because people might see me. You know what's really interesting? After years of this behavior, I get regulars at places I frequent who come over and introduce themselves, show me their vape gear and tell me how long they've been smoke free and that seeing me so comfortable and obviously enjoying myself was what made them decide to try vaping at all. These are not acquaintances or friends. They're not people who I talk to regularly or who came over and asked a bunch of questions about vaping, although I get those too. These are just other human beings whose lives I have helped change in a positive way just by being visible and unashamed about what I'm doing every single day. It happens all the time. So, yes, I vape in public.

I don't know if its a good or bad thing but I vape with customers in the car, of course i ask them if they mind me vaping and they all say no...


Color me the oddball but there's no way I'd flippantly pull out a PV in my cab and expect to have a right to fog up such a small space. A space people are paying you to sit in to boot. And of course most will tell you they don't mind... you're putting them on the spot. It's your cab and they don't want to deal with potential and uncomfortable silence for the duration of the ride should they say no. :)

I'm all for educating the public about vaping but the inside of a cab is not public. :)

I understand what ur sayin, but u have yo b able to read you audience, us taxi drivers have to judge a book by its cover when picking up customers, if its a young lad then i vape if its a middle aged guy with his kids i don't bother..
