Perhaps the OP should consider exercising a higher level of Self Control and just vape outside during his breaks. Less drama that way.

I'm not saying this to anyone in particular.
Perhaps the Addiction to e-Cigarettes is Greater than the Addiction to Analogs. Because I find it disturbing if someone can't go 4hours without having to "Stealth Vape" or Sneak a hit in a Closet.

just wanted to add, I am also a little paranoid about vaping at work, I also work at a hospital with a strict no smoking policy.. I have vaped outside during my break and always in places away from the public... but for the most part I vape in the restroom lol I feel safer in there, and I would also recommend not letting your co workers know that u smoke period, because then they will be paranoid and say you smell like smoke even if you don't, i know because it happened to me... good luck
I have to echo the "Why did you not go at least outside and why were you in a high sensitivity area and why was the door to that area not locked .. ??" If you worked for me, you'd get the boot ..
If smoking is banned anywhere, why do we feel we should be excluded from that policy .. ?? It looks like smoking .. we live in a World of cameras and busy bodies .. excercise a little self restraint .. otherwise, when the e-cig gets more and more common, the ban will simply be ammended to include anything that looks like smoking .. and on most cameras, it's going to look like you are smoking something ..
And let's hope the security folks that view the footage don't think it's an illegal substance ..

Jeez Louise.. Note to self- If you ever do anything dumb, do no ever post about it on this board. You'll get lectures that will make your Mom jealous. 
That's a good policy for life in general .. no one should have any sympathy for this individual ..
Must be tough walking with that large stick... Lighten up Francis. I'm sure the guy knows this by now. He was just sweating it and vented because he thought he might have lost his job.
That's harsh, unnecessary, and the complete antithesis to this forum in general. We are supposed to be a supportive community, and you're being a douche. It doesn't really matter whether or not you have sympathy; you can still be helpful without feeling bad for someone. Or, if you can't, leave them alone. Swedishfish is right... that's Mom's job.
and name calling is permisible .. ?? Practice what you preach ..
So how does telling him that people Stealth Vape in a Hospital all the time help him?
Just saying, you're not helping anyone by making people feel unwelcome and unable to post their problems here. We're all people besides vapers, and this person was having a real world problem that he needed advice on, not reprimanding from a stranger.
Bottom line: OP asked for trouble .. now the OP hopes he can get away with it and comes here for comfort .. ?? Somethings wrong with that picture ..
This is a self created problem .. the OP should own it, not ask for excuses on why it's OK ..
First of all, I never told anyone to stealth vape in a hospital. I said I did, and I didn't ask for anyone's opinion on whether I should or not. I was waiting for my Mom's 6 hour surgery and hell yea, I stealth vaped. If I had an actual cig, I might have smoked that. I do it, I have my big girl panties on and I own it.
This guy is sweating worrying about his job. No one here ever snuck a cigarette or a vape? Please. It's pointless to lecture someone after that fact when I'm sure he's been praying or whatever the whole weekend to 'pleasedon'tfiremeandI'llneverdoitagain".
