I vape at my desk whenever I want to. I work in health care and believe the PV has been well received by the health care community. I might add that my desk is in a rehab clinic and I haven't heard one complaint. When I started vaping I showed it to the administrator of the facility. I told him that, "I'm not smoking in your facility" as I took a vape in front of him. I don't go around the floors vaping and I am a little discreet when I do vape, but to date nobody has said anything other than comment on how odd it is that there is no smell from it.

I was showing off my 510 today to my boss. It was the first time he had seen it and after explaining how it works and all that i proceeded to assemble it in front of him and vape in his office. His reaction was priceless... like what the hell are you doing? Until he noticed no smell or anything else. I did the same thing at our morning conference. Needless to say I still have to go outside.

I work in IT, and I'm in a largish office with my boss. I showed him my KR-808D-1, showed how there was no flame and no smoke, just some vapor, he thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread. Helps that we're both gadget freaks. I keep vaping away all day long with my PT and my cartos. Keeps me from killing users. :)

The way I see it, is that, it's best not to vape where you wouldn't smoke. For instance, I wouldn't even consider vaping in class or at work, unless people you've address, are fine with it. For class I feel it's very rude and disrespectul. In the bathroom, **** it, why not? :) And at home or at a friend's place or a bar, sure whatever. But don't be surprised if people do tell you to not vape in certain places. If I bartender told me to not vape b/c smokers might complain about wanting to smoke inside, I would totally understand that.

Basically, don't have any expectations of anyone. And be ready for all types of responses, good and bad.
 
We just started our E-CIG business about two weeks and I was approached by a local business owner that offers his employees $20.00 if they stop smoking for 24hrs and $100.00 a month for a year straight if they stop smoking all together. We were talking and he did not consider the E-CIG smoking so he said even if his people switched over to the E-CIG he would love it.

He ordered our last 10 kits we had in stock as gifts for his employees for Christmas so we were pretty excited about that. We have a new LARGE order arriving in 2 weeks which will be nice because I am sure that word of mouth is going to spread. I just like the fact the people are switching over to a healthier alternative.

I work in an office full of babies who can't get up the guts to talk to me if they have a problem (about anything). They immediately run and tattle to the bosses.

I mostly go out to vape with the smokers, but every once in a while I need a quick stealth hit to avoid a full-on smoke break and I just hold in the vapor until it's gone. Still...someone seems to have complained and now we're waiting for word for corporate office on the policy.

I'm 99% certain it's gonna go the way of "outside only." That sucks.

I go to work, I sit in the chair and chit chat for a few mins in the morning with my non-smoking boss who always asks me..so what flavor are you sucking on today.
Lol...she's happy I quit and doesn't care that I do it. We have kids come in on field trips sometimes though and I be sure to keep it hidden then. I don't think it should be done around kids just like smoking but that's more of a respect type thing.
