Smoke in your customers face
Saturday,
February 21, 2009
It always amazes me how non-smokers who can clearly see an ashtray or people smoking use that area to enter instead of using the other door. Or how about the ones who sit on the bench next to the ashtray when there is another one away from it. I try to be a considerate smoker but if you walk up to a smoking area then whose fault is it? If I was an owner of a business shouldn't I be the one who decides who I hire? Maybe the smoker works her butt off while the non-smoker steals. As a smoker I take offense to your assumption that I may be distracted by the habit and less considerate of other people.
While you are trying to fix offensive health hazards how about tackling the people who take a bath in perfume and go to a restaurant. Ever try to eat a steak while a cheap imitation of Chanel No. 5 is wafting across your food? Now there's a time to feel sorry for the waitress. Not the same as smoking being hazardous? Tell that to me when my eyes are watering, my throat is closing and my blood pressure goes up. Yep even allergies can be hazardous. Hey, I have an idea why not have a no perfume section of the restaurant and then eventually all the perfume wearers will have to eat outside and then if I walk thru that section knowing it is the perfume section I will keep my irritation to myself.
