If you have a job that is anything like mine, only one in the office, slow traffic, and nothing to do, you chain vape like no one's business. I used to smoke well over a half a pack of cigarettes during my 8 hour shift and by the end my chest would hurt, my mouth would taste of ..., and just feel all around horrible.
Now, I can vape 5+ ML of juice on low nic and have nothing but a bit of cotton mouth. I don't necessarily like to chain vape, as too much of anything is bad for you, but I think this is awesome! No longer do I have to stand out in the weather and smell the nasty trucks of slop (I work on an international bridge).
Anyway, enough of my story, what are your vaping habits at work? Do you chain vape? Vape like you smoked? Maybe not vape at all?
Any confrontations you've had with co-workers or your boss? If you are a boss/supervisor, do you let those you work with vape in the building?

Meh when I first started vaping I vaped the s*** out of my APV at work. Now that I've realized it may not have been the best thing to do, I now ask my co-workers before I vape inside. While it is Summer out thogh, I really don't do much vaping inside. I just go outside.

My work is fairly active, so I am always driving somewhere or are places other than our office.

I vape in the lunch room and sometimes at my desk. There are smokers and tobacco chewers in the office so they don't mind. But I still walk outside and cape just to get away. My boss did ask me to hide my vale when people from corporate visit...I can understand not vaping in the office but hiding my PV...come on its not drugs

I work in an office area where there is little traffic and the door is always closed. My cubicle is behind a wall so no one can see me vaping. I don't do it openly in front of any co-workers as I don't want them to say anything and then I'd have to go outside. So far, there was only one person that smelled something burnt and I played it off as the air-conditioning issue. No one else has said they smell anything. I do leave my PV on my desk so people can see it though I don't know if they know what it is.

I don't have a job right now but I know my last job a couple of the guys there vaped. they would only do it when customers weren't around and in the corner where no one see them. it never bothered me ( non smoker) the sweetness smell all i could smell. if i did work i wouldn't vap at work, im a closet vaper I guess you could call me.

I didn't really smoke a lot.. maybe 8-10cigs a day depending on how busy I was. Because I was a closet/shameful smoker I never smoked in my house or even on my yard. I'd always go for a walk/take the dog out to have a smoke. HOWEVER.... since I've started vaping I feel sort of... mad with the power of being able to vape indoors. I bought 18mg juice, and I think it's tooo strong for the amount the I'm vaping. I'm going to have to get a lower strength or cut back I think!
At work I sneak little breaks, so I don't vape about the same amount at work as I used to smoke. Not a lot.
Interesting thread!

I sit at a desk all day and vape constantly. It is a small family business, so me and my friend cloud up the room. We love it. Owner don't care, because they are my parents, and they are happy I'm not smoking. I used to go outside a smoke, but now I only go outside to walk the dog. Oh yeah, by the way, we have at least 3 dogs in the office at all times (parents have 2 and I have 1). Not a bad job..

I was going to TRY and vape only outside. But, since my office is in a separate building from the rest of the campus (with only my direct boss, our developer, PC tech, and since we're all pretty tight), I vape at my desk all the time. Like, right now. They don't mind it, even though none of them vape or smoke themselves. My boss actually comes by my office all the time to smell what the "Vapor is cooking", and ask what flavor it is.
