This is getting totally out of hand. It's no longer about quitting smoking but quitting nicotine altogether because somehow nicotine has become the number 1 evil of all time. It's now to the point where if one is addicted to "legal" nicotine one is in the same class as someone addicted to any one of the "illegal" drugs out there. But it's okay to addict ourselves and our children to massive amounts of caffiene on a daily basis.

 

[JollyRogers]

I am sure caffeine products are sold and prescribed within the hospital itself along with a lot of other addictive drugs. How is a PV any different? Out local hospital has banned also. When I had to go there as a smoker, I would go to my car. I was never challenged.

They must be confused, "ban all use of tobacco". Okay, fine. What's that have to do with a PV? And the day someone tells me what I can/can't do in my own car.....arrest me.

 

[BradSmith]

Evil, fascist, son's of a you know what. ARGGGGGGGG!!!!

Can't leave out ignorant, that tops the bill.

Get in the Back of the Bus. What a long way we have come. NOT.

The FDA will soon have their hands full with the new Food Safety law.
They need to hire a huge Food Police force and gear up to control and
regulate our food supply. Well, actually they will have a lot of help from Monsanto.

The FDA won't have a lot of time and money to devote to the "E-ciggy" thing...
So, they passed the baton to the zealots to do their dirty work for them.

Well...When we smoked we were told that we were
"Nothing but a Smoker". If we tried to quit and returned
to smoking...We were told we were nothing but a
"Weak Minded Smoker with No Will-Power"

We finally found an alternative and gave up smoking

Now we are being treated the same as if we never quit smoking
"Your nothing but an E-smoker with No Will-Power" AND
"if you must do that nasty thing...You can only do it with
other smokers and only where the zealots give you permission"

Yes, we can continue to "Stealth" vape...
or sneak into the bathroom or hide and vape and constantly
be looking over our shoulders for zealots and the E-smoking hall monitors

Oh, by the way...Little known fact:
Zealots love emails telling them what we think...
they print the emails and use them as toilet paper

They use recycled paper...Save the Trees!

I relate vaping to drinking coffee. Nothing more. If anyone has anything critical to say to me about vaping, they better not drink coffee or liqour, eat to excess, play video games, lay on a couch all day, go to they gym 80 times a week....you get the point.

I gather your not frighten by the zealots, E-smoking hall monitors
and their E-smoking police threatening to take you to E-smoking jail
and put you in a cell with "hardened" cigarette smoking addicts

Will they go so far as to disallow the nightshades in the cafeterias of these hospitals?

Or perhaps they will continue to use the good for you argument?

I work at a hospital in NY and so far there has been no problems with me vaping in the break room. BUT, it IS NY and I'm sure it's only a matter of time before someone complains that it "looks" like I'm smoking and therefore offends them in some way. I honestly believe it's the "look" of smoking that bothers some people and conveys a negative perception, which is why I personally don't use the term "E-Cigarette"...I quit smoking, now I vape and use a pv.


Be well

Again - an unenforcable rule. How would they even know someone was using snus?

And this:

"just to try to have more of a conversation with them about how not smoking benefits everyone else."

So, how does not using snus or other smokeless options benefit "everyone else?"

Once again they effortlessly, yet illogically, lump in ALL tobacco and recreational nicotine use with "smoking."

Hospitals typically have death squad mentality management.

Whats of concern, as we see more and more hospitals banning E-smoking,
is that it sends a signal to other hospitals and businesses that E-smoking is
as harmful as smoking tobacco.

If hospitals ban E-smoking then E-smoking must be dangerous

That's about it. Get your ... outside and smoke with the nurses. The docs smoke in their own room!!! Oh yah and drink too.

I worked at a hospital in my sleepy little town, it's gone now but when it was open I used to have to wake up drunken ER Docs after buzzing them over and over. Thank God for Nurses!!!

Many might think BradSmith is just joking or stretching the truth a little to be humorous.

I worked as a sub-contractor at a hospital for several years. BradSmith and I could write books on what goes on inside hospitals. However, the books would be filed in the Fiction section of libraries because few would believe the stories to be true.
