Well, where I work there are a lot of employee's. I tend to notice everyone who passes by my desk. The smoking area is right next to me out the double glass doors. From working here the past few months I tend to notice the regular smokers who come out and smoke.
They will tend to come out like every 20 - 30 minutes and then procede to stay outside for about 15-20 minutes. The amount of time that they spend out there will vary based on weather. If it is cold, they will just come down with there coats and stay for short bursts. If it is warm, they will go out and stay for about 20 minutes or so. Most times they will come down in a pack of about 3 - 5 or just a max of 2 sometimes.
Mind you I have nothing against smokers, what people choose to do with there lives is their god given right.
My Question to others is, Is it fair for the employee's who don't smoke and don't have this ability to be away from there desks so often and for such a long space of time.
Me and a co-worker were speaking about this yesterday.
We know that all the regular employee's don't take these sorts of breaks..
Is it really fair to other employee's..?
Your thought's please.
And be controversial if you have to....\
thanks
