    I smoke but Im not really upset by the ban, the spoons in Bognor already has a smoking area thats always packed so Im used to upping and leaving to go outside! I dont like it when people smoke in a restuarant though, especially if the foods really good!

    Realise that they will more than likely live longer when they decide they don't want to pay twice.

    I remember there being a big fuss at Westlands when they came up with the site wide smoking ban. You weren't even allowed to smoke in the car parks or by the gates (as crowds of staff standing round smoking looked naff to the visiting suits). So smokers had to go further afield for their drags... which meant smoking breaks were lasting around 15-20 mins a time. The non-smoking workers then complained as these smokers were getting paid to disappear for 20 mins to smoke, so they wanted additional paid breaks in the day; and the smokers were complaining because the company was infringing their human rights in some way by making them walk so far for a smoke...

    When I worked for Parcelforce I used to sit back and put my feet up when everyone went for a smoke...

    Although there was one fat lazy bint who would turn up 15 mins late, switch on her computer then go for a 20 min fag before acutally doing any work. PLus all her breaks during the day.

    We added up once that she took on average 2 hours a day on fag breaks.
