I vape in the bathroom at work when I'm the only one in there. Of course, I'm a teacher at a public school, so it's kind of my only choice.
Every time I do it, I find the song "Smokin' In The Boys Room"running thru my head. And, inevitably, the words get changed.... "Vapin' In The Boys Room".... :)

I have that same song in my head!! :)

There are 2 main types of smoke detectors, photocell and ionization, maybe? And they have different sensitivities. Anyway, they are not "smoke" detectors they are "particulate matter" detectors. Stealth vaping and keeping the vapor away from the sensor and you should be fine,

I think it would be interesting to have someone compile a list of flavors that have a strong "scent residue" and those that have an undistinguishable odor residue. It would be good to know!

I had an npro in the car on my way to work and I notice my car is stinky now. Guess I need to switch to vanilla when I get my 510 maybe that will be better. I never smoked analogs in my car.

You may want to run it by your HR department. I asked mine and they said I could vape in the office as long as there was no fire, flame (I don't exactly understand the difference), and no smoke, and of course no one complains. I've been vaping at work for a 4 months now.
I asked HR and they said we are a tobacco free environment and it's not allowed. She then asked if I needed to report a violation. I said it was just a conversation some of us were having. I decided not to explain to her that there is no tobacco in these. ;-)

Guess I'd better step outside. It's probably best for me to not add new places and new habits anyway. . .I mean I never smoked in my car or in the bathroom; in the interest of not making a worse habit I suppose I should stick to going outside with the smokers. :-/

I am constantly stealth vaping at work. I started with the bathroom, now I have it down to a science at my desk and no one knows the wiser *evil laugh*. I keep it in my sleeve and raise my hand to my mouth like I am deep in thought "puff puff". I could win a stealthy award!

Wow that's good! I should try that LOL. We currently sit 2 to a cube now so I guess I'd have to wait for everyone to leave first. ;)

I've been tempted to vape at my desk but since I sit just a few feet from the VP's door and she can see the back of my chair, I dare not. I have been told that I can vape in the restroom only because if we have visitors coming they would not understand the "smoke". I vape in the restroom at my other job too and I do go outside just to get away from the desk.
