Slightly miffed.

[April Wall]

I just had someone tell me while I was buying vape juice from the gas station. Don't you know that's 50×'s worse than smoking. That's what his mom's dr told her.
So is this dr just biased? [emoji35] [emoji36]

 

[sbc83]

Did she say that before or after asking the clerk for a carton of Camel unfiltered?

 

[April Wall]

It was the clerk

 

[somdcomputerguy]

I would've said, "Only 50 times worse? I must not be doing it right."

 

[April Wall]

Just kinda ...... me off. And I found myself get heated when I replied. That my Dr said it was better than smoking and all of the research I have done backs that up.

Well, you are assuming the doctor said that, which doesn't seem too certain.

Whatever he said passed from doctor to mother, then from mother to son, then on to you.
That's a number of iterations, each of which could alter what was actually said.

Regardless, if a doctor doesn't promote the idea of switching to vaping, I would get a different doctor.
And if he really said it was 50x worse than smoking, I would see how to get him fired for incompetence.

But yeah, I really doubt the doctor said that.

 

[April Wall]

I agree. But it was irritating. I am an asthmatic and I smoked my Dr was beyond for me switching to vaping. Then he goes to tell me she had pneumonia. And I was like well yeah she shouldn't have been smoking or vaping anything.

Omg I didn't even think of that. Lmfao. [emoji75]

 

[Completely Average]

I would have asked to speak to the manager, told them what the clerk said, and then said "You just lost a customer".

And I definitely wouldn't have bought the juice there. Certainly not after having a clerk tell me how bad their juice is.

 

[sbc83]

It was the clerk

The way itr was written makes it look like a customer in line said it.

 

[April Wall]

Well I live in a really small town so the next nearest gas station is 15 miles away. So if I lived in a bigger town that might work.

 

[April Wall]

My bad I was still irritated it was not another customer just to clarify it was the clerk. And the manager is never there. It's a one clerk gas station.

NEVER,NEVER underestimate the ignorance of the average human being!

It was the clerk

So it was the clerk in a gas station?
I'm going to go with a 75% chance that the clerk is a smoker.

 

[RavenZ]

I probably would have said :
" You work at a gas station, breathing car fumes is 1000x's worse then vaping"

I agree. But it was irritating. I am an asthmatic and I smoked my Dr was beyond for me switching to vaping. Then he goes to tell me she had pneumonia. And I was like well yeah she shouldn't have been smoking or vaping anything.

Was he saying she had a pneumonia due to vaping?

Yup he is.

 

[EBates]

Nope, IMO, just another Koolaid drinker (TV, Internet, word on the street).

I agree. I need an anti-stupid shield.

He is down on it because his mom has COPD and had pneumonia and he bought her a ciga like and she got worse. [emoji36]
