Do you know anybody who works for a Tobacco company or in the industry?

It seems to be a very regionalized profession. I’m sure the posters from North Carolina do.

I went on a few dates late last year with a lady who worked for a tobacco company. She would go to all the different stores in her of her particular region, check inventory, make orders, set up promotionals, etc. I dunno what that position is called. She wasn't like delivery, had to dress nicely for work every day, had a company vehicle, and basically drove all day long.

In middle school, I had a friend whose parents both worked for Philip Morris, but I don't know what they did. His mom smoked like a chimney and the downstairs of their house smelled terrible. He was an only child and they'd converted the whole upstairs to basically a big suite for just him, so we only hung out up there.

Sales?

I don’t know anyone in the corporate world that works for s tobacco company, but do know some farmers who grow it in the carolinas and Kentucky. It is a fascinating process. One time I happened upon a field i\of tobacco around rayville, LA as well.

Oh, you've met some alright. You just didn't know it. And that's the point.

One of my favorite companies is Altria Group.

Big tobacco...if they don't kill you one way, they'll kill you another.
