Smoking at work........

[tec0]

I have been studying to try and better my qualifications. Now with all the corruption "leaks" when it comes to question papers it is virtually impossible... See they don't tell us anything we have to smell the truth and for the most part those responsible will happily feed us crap in and keep us in the dark. As long as the money keeps rolling in they have no intention to ask about unfair papers nor how "some" got there hands on them before hand.

The ugly truth is those question papers are under there control not ours so the leaks MUST start with them trying to make extra money. So much for bettering yourself hey... It is always so easy to spew out this crap of "you can do something about it if you want" that is just BS... You can do nothing!!! Not one damn thing because the corrupt made it impossible to do so.

Like I said before this is not just about smoking... It is about toleration... But the absolute slap in the face is you are not tolerate you demand your rights!! BUT when it comes to you and your actions others must remain tolerate towards you. Now I know many young people I myself use to be one. We worked the crappy jobs and most of the time we don't even get paid because the employer are to drunk or to full or crap to pay... They always find some excuse...

So I don't really care for your world because it is only yours as long as you can hang on to it. Thankfully we are getting clever, we figure out how to do things cheaper better faster that is what the young generation are good for. So in the end when you close up shop because your customers found someone younger better... I would love to be a fly on that wall....

Now you will say there is no chance... Well I can point to a few companies that lost there customers to other businesses so I say it is only a matter of time.

The truth is you will actually take away people's jobs JUST BECAUSE you think that there is something wrong with smoking. So for that same reason I hope that someone clever better will come along and find the same reason to do the same thing to you. Let's see if you like your own medicine...

The really sad thing is I am not a bad person I will normally not say things like you see above....

Well so much for being human...

tec0 - realy check There was a 150 jobs offered at TESCO in England and 4,300 people applied, yes 4,300.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2313450/Dire-state-Britains-job-market-unveiled-4-300-people-apply-just-150-vacancies-new-Tesco-store.html

I bet you that when time came to choose 150 people not one of them was a smoker. You need to get it through your head that working for any company is a priviledge and not a right. I choose the employee who I want to work for MY company on MY terms. If you want to be one of the 150 employed out out of 4,300 applicants then you had better get off your butt, get an education or skill, stop smoking and quit your whining.

The only person who can change your view of the world is yourself, so stop blaming everyone else and take a look in the mirror. How does other people cheating, stop you from passing? where do you draw the line in your argument for tolerance, why dont you accept that people cheat, like how you want companies to accept smokers. Just cause you watch some video on youtube with given statistics dont make what the video says true. Would you have a problem if teachers smoked in class, would you have a problem if doctors smoked in operating rooms, or maternal wards, just where do you draw the line. Must a doctor lose his job because he is a chain smoker and needs to smoke while operating. The more you focus on the negative in the this world the more you will see of it. You believe that your thoughts and actions attract things to you, so why keep finding things that bring you these negative thoughts.

This is a smoking hot thread but goes to show that it is smoking hot because focus is here. Smoking is an addiction, people smoke not because it is cool, but because they are addicted. So where must a company draw the line and say a certain addict is allowed in the work place, so have smokers but dont have heroin addicts. To refuse rules because they might lead to intolerance is really being an anarchist. You may think that company owners are wrong for not wanting smokers in the work place, but how do you become the judge when what you asking for, is for everyone to stand by and watch as someone slowly kills himself.

Well just look at your own replies... You are more demanding then what I am. All I am asking for is some toleration some consideration and accept that some people need what they need to function normally. Smoking is not the same as drugs or alcohol yet you do not think so. Thus my conclusion is you don't know much about the subject.

When I pointed to other products that would eliminate the the need for smokers to go outside and or the need for special facilities you ignore them. Thus your intention was clear to me, you wish to oppress people.

There is no getting around it... I mean just look at your own replies “posts” and contributions. That is slaver talk... Well an intolerant world brings forth anarchy.

As for watching people die, that is kind of the point of the song if you actually took the time to take it all in. Each and everyone of us will die. Not because of smoking mind you. Right now half of all our fish died in the dam because someone dumped poison in it. Even the animals died from drinking it. It was in our local newspapers. NOW companies cannot tolerate smokers but it is OK to poison our dams because they must survive?

Eventually there will come a time where purification systems will no longer be able to purify the volume of water needed to sustain a city and or agriculture. So if you want to get all high an mighty start there... But you will not...

But you made your choice... So I rest my case... You want to be a d!ck and push other people around then go for it... They will start to push back eventually.

@vieome - Many people in life are like TVs. Although there are sometimes interesting programs to watch and there might be a diversity of channels on one TV, the experience is not interactive no matter how much energy you expend talking to the screen...

tec not sure if you are sniffing glue or what, but you are way off the track.
Every company has a right to employ who they want to !
I certainly would not employ a huge fat guy to for example go into a ceiling to install a geyser !
I WOULD employ a hot young female to sell office equipment. This is being done.
I would not employ a hugely religious person to make bombs if I owned a dynamite factory. Im joking here ......
And I would not employ a smoker!
My choice, lots of company's choice. End of story.
If you want to play the pity thing, that is your choice, but no-one is going to give a damn about you if you do !
Just a tip here. Candidates should better themselves from dressing better, to getting a better education etc etc.

Did you know that illegal drugs employ more people then you do? Find more "work" for young people then you do? Did you know that more then half of them will end up in our prisons or dead. Do you know why that is? Not because of smoking that I can promise you. They are there because they couldn't find jobs that would pay them enough money so that they can actually support themselves. Now that is your doing... Not mine... Your standards... Not mine...

Don't judge people because to this I will testify!!! I have found the best people in the worst places of our country. People so open so beautiful so humble that I get tears in my eyes just thinking about them. People that despite every hardship remained true...

Is smoking your toe nails considered a health risk.....?

So tec0 -

do you want your airline pilot to sneak off every hour to smoke in the toilet during a 14 hour flight?
or..
do you want to be served by a waitress whos breath smells like an ashtray?
or even better..
how about your dentist, would you like it if he sneaks out halfway through your root canal and comes back smelling like a dead goat?

OR you can just supply them with an electronic alternative and they will have no need to sneak of every hour or have bad breath. My dentist do smoke and she uses mouth wash

[AndyD]

My dentist doesn't smoke but he does have something of a musty smell about him sometimes. I used to have a bookkeeper and she regularly smelled like the South end of a Northbound skunk, we broached the subject of personal hygiene on several occasions but to little avail. I even installed an air freshener that automatically squirted every 20 mins in the office but thankfully she emigrated.

Apparently they just light up in the cockpit. That security door sure has its advantages.

Once again discrimination raises its ugly head.
