Employees smoking ciggs in front of the business.

We have a couple of employees that smoke throughout the day, but they do it in the back. It still sucks to have to smell their nasty ashtray smelling asses though.

Why are you bothered by so many insignificant matters?

no I really don't give a shite if they smoke. I'm not their mother, and I'm not worried about briefly being exposed to smoke. Let them have their vices.

Better than serial masterbaters in front of the business.

Shut up

I wish we could still burn heaters in the office.

Does this bother anyone? Keep you from entering and doing business at that place? Seems like a lot of employers don't give a rip whether their people burn heaters out front or not.

It actually does bother me. I used to live near the Albertson's at the corner of Jones Creek and George O'Neal and the employees always seemed to be taking their smoke breaks right near the entrances on either side. It is just a trashy look for a business for the customer's first impression of your place to be employees smoking as you enter. Eventually I stopped shopping there....not only because of that, but because the neighborhood WalMart store's prices were cheaper.

Its a bad look for the business and its extremely inconsiderate of guests/other employees entering and exiting who dont want to go through a cloud of smoke.

only place I ever had to walk through a crowd of smokers and clouds of smoke was outside a public building (La. Div of Admin, Courthouse). Never had an issue at a retail establishment.

Except for a tobacco store. But thats like bitching about sick people in front of a hospital.

i see this mostly at convenience stores.

You have a well-oiled machine if you have 7,300 employees & manage to hang out here during work. I'm impressed.
