I'm done smoking in Cigar Lounges

Coming from a former B&M employee, I can tell you that there is no way to ventilate a lounge well enough if there are 10 guys all chuffing away like a Union Pacific Big Boy hauling a string up-grade. The best thing you can do is have very high ceilings and multiple smoke eaters, but even then you may have to simply vent to outside air to clear the smoke every so often (that's expensive and being restricted a lot more by laws).

Being a single guy, I don't worry what smells I might bring home (probably better than the smells I already have anyway), but I do worry about what I track back to the office every day. I keep some smoking clothes in my truck so that if I go by the shop for lunch, I can quickly change into something I don't mind smelling like smoke and change back when I return to the office.
