I work for a company that makes super balls. Balles Bleues. I'm the only one who vapes. Next door to us is a lingerie studio called Vixens and lots of the models vape but they won't talk to us. It's quite frustrating.
Why do I have trouble believing this?

anyway. Neither vaping nor smoking is allowed on the property where I work. I vape at lunch in my truck on the far side of the parking lot. I do not expect trouble as long as I am discreet as the local GM is a vaper, also discreet.

This past year I have seen a sharp increase in the number of people who now vape at work. In this same time frame I have seen zero people start smoking. [HASHTAG]#TDBT1VAAT[/HASHTAG] - taking down big tobacco one vape at a time.
Ever think that without big tobacco there would be no vaping....
I am thankful to big tobacco. I like vaping.

I don't believe that. I was vaping before BT got in the picture and products then were as good as what BT sell today. I can attribute the rise in popularity in ads for blue, and maybe that helped increase innovation, but BT is in no way solely responsible for vaping.

The guy in china who invented the ecig did it to get his father off of cigs....
People around the world grew the industry of vaping by using it to get off of cigarettes....
Without cigarettes ecigs would maybe not have happened at all.

LOL. Chicken and egg. Still, if BT saw a way to kill vaping long ago they would have.
Of course they would it is competition. Same as the govt wanting to eliminate organized crime, they hate competition.

Not really chicken and egg this is documented. Chicken or egg first is not.

BT had its day but it needs to be over. It's the leading cause of preventable death in America. Vaping needs to kill BT. I would rather see someone start vaping before they start smoking. smoking isn't an avenue, it's a death trap.

so I guess side effects of obesity will now overtake smoking as the leading preventable cause of death?

Lo cal vape liquid :)

There are quite a few vapers. Sometimes more vapers in the smoke areas than smokers. But I am currently in North Yorkshire, England. I rarely seen anyone with an advanced device. People here vape cigalikes or maybe something like a Nautilus tank. Once in awhile, I might see someone with a sub-ohm tank. The only time I saw people with rebuildables or mech mods was at a UK vape expo. I always assume that all of the vapers using the advanced devices are concentrated in the US.

I work in a casino, I see lots of smokers and vapers. On company time we have to go out to the smokers area. About half smoke and the other half vape. A couple of years ago vapers were rare, now its about 50/50. I mean both players and workers

Next time your outside vaping, ask the smokers if their into having a cloud chucking contest. LOL

I work for a very large company, maybe 30 smokers 1 other vaper. But she's like weirdly snobby about it, so we don't actually talk. I'll be working from home soon and then vaping will be a nice productivity booster since I never smoked in the house.

I often wonder if I'm viewed this way as I prefer to vape in my car or out outside of the moking pit. I got rid of the habit 5 yrs ago and the wafts of moke can be overpowering. Additionally there is some ignorance on both the mokers and non on vaping and what we're really doing...:rolleyes:

Hes saying with out smoking(BT) there would be no reason for vaping. BT is the the biggest contributer to vaping because w/o them we wouldnt be vaping.

OT there is alot of smokers at work and 0 vapors at 1 point there was a couple kids who were dual users. In still a dual user and mainly smoke at work unless inside in my area where im alone and can vape. After work smokes are rare, but its still hard after 9 months to quit conpletely
