Does anyone smoke at work?

Bunker · 10-12-2010, 06:47 AM

I seem to be an all or nothing smoker.

On weekends when I don't have my daughter at the house (every other), I will have a cigar with my coffee early, at least one more during the day and the last one walking the dog at night.

The weekend she is there I don't smoke at all (she knows I do but I don't when she is there).

During the week it is generally the one smoke after dinner walking the dog, but yesterday I brought a cigar with me and had a wonderful lunch break walking along the Battle Road in Lexington with a Cubao #4.

Anyone else smoking their lunch?

Religiously. I work 3rds and it's VERY relaxed at my place, as long as the work is caught up.

alwayslit · 10-12-2010, 06:51 AM

yes, lunch consists of a smoke.

I usually have a mild bodied cigar with my coffee in the morning but I smoke all day while I'm getting driving to various job sites and town halls submitting building applications and whatnot. Although the most enjoyable smoke of the day comes when I'm winding down after dinner.

I sure do.

jonumberone · 10-12-2010, 06:57 AM

I'm lucky enough to smoke while I work.
If I get busy it does tend to spoil the experience at times.
I generally smoke 3 a day at work but on weekends I usually get to 1 a day.
Football season has changed that a bit, this Sunday, smoked 5 while watching the games.

I smoke at work. We have alot of downtime on nights so I always carry 1 with me.

OHRD · 10-12-2010, 07:22 AM

I'm envious of those that do, but not me. I could on my lunch break, but I'm about 10 minutes from home, so I go home and hang with my wife and 2 boys (she's a stay at home)...

longknocker · 10-12-2010, 07:42 AM

Not Me. Home & Herfs Are My Usual Places.

smokehouse · 10-12-2010, 07:45 AM

Yep sure do

srduggins · 10-12-2010, 09:38 AM

I usually have a lunchtime smoke about 3 days a week.

CigarNut · 10-12-2010, 09:58 AM

Some times I smoke at lunch -- particularly when the weather is nice. If it is not raining I might have a cigar on the way to work and the way home from work (I drive a convertible).

I find that a cigar really helps me wind down at the end of the day. At the beginning of the day or at lunch it's just a really nice bonus

icehog3 · 10-12-2010, 10:05 AM

Used to be able to smoke in our work vehicles years ago, and I would smoke a cigar every night.

When they took that privilige away from us and I was working midnights, a few of us would get together on our "lunch" hour and smoke.

These days....not al all.

G G · 10-12-2010, 10:09 AM

Not very often. I have downtime (EMS) but i hate wasting them cause it seems like everytime I light a cigar we get a call so I pretty much gave up on trying.

mcmoyer · 10-12-2010, 10:28 AM

Nope. I suppose I could, a co-worker does. Always too hungry & would rather eat.

sikk50 · 10-12-2010, 10:56 AM

I do if I'm working the graveyard shift and it's my last shift before my days off. Otherwise my uniform smells for the rest of the days I work and I don't want my supervisor accusing me of smoking in the p.t. or something stupid

Bill86 · 10-12-2010, 11:04 AM

30 minute lunch break....not enough time. Especially since I'm always hungry, on my days off I get 2 cigars a day in. Work days, just before work that's it.

Shadow · 10-12-2010, 11:05 AM

I do, I work at a cigar shop!

My wife also smoke cigars so I don't have a problem at home smoking.

DennisP · 10-12-2010, 11:05 AM

I work from home, so I occasionally take the laptop to the patio and light one up. Probably only once/week or so now though.

Volusianator · 10-12-2010, 11:06 AM

I work part time at two cigar shops...nuff said!
