Smoking breaks

[Kire]

Why is it that people at work have a more valid excuse to feed their addiction, but it's less socially acceptable for someone else to just "chill" for a bit when at work? Wussup wit dat?

Re: Smoking breaks

I went back to smoking for a while (a few years ago) because it was the only way I could actually get my breaks at work.

All the smokers get more breaks. Nobody gives them crap about it, since they are so put-upon and have to make such a huge effort to go outside. It's total BS.

Re: Smoking breaks

Despite being highly allergic to smoke, I took "smoking breaks" back when I worked at Kroger. I brought my GBA with me.

Re: Smoking breaks

Yeah, I think smoking breaks are pretty insane.

Re: Smoking breaks

Yeah, that is a big problem in grocery stores. They get an extra break just for smoking, when other people who don't smoke, don't get the same break.

Re: Smoking breaks

I don't take breaks at work. I'm just THAT busy working.

Re: Smoking breaks

All the jobs I've ever worked, I took smoke breaks when I was TOLD. It's been pounded into my head enough that even when I worked third shift and could basically have a smoke whenever no one was around(which was a lot), I always took it in the two-hour segments that the non-third-shift workers were made to do.

Re: Smoking breaks

At my school people take smoke breaks in the bathroom. Or pot breaks. Coke breaks. Sex breaks. Whatever.

especially since Kroger only gives you fifteen minutes unless you work more than four hours. more often than not, they'll put you on the clock for three hours and forty-five minutes. at least, that's how it was when I was there.
I quite dig my smoking breaks. at Pizza Hut, they were the only kind of breaks we got. we also didn't get to leave when the schedule said we could.
I need to stop working at places that don't treat you well.

Re: Smoking breaks

I don't care how far behind I am in my work. If they say I get breaks, I'm taking them, damnit all! Screw the smokers.
