Cigar


It takes a lot to shock me and to get me upset. But a few days ago, I got shocked and upset at something seemingly silly.

We were sitting at our company cafeteria having lunch, when a client came out of a meeting and decided to take a break in the cafeteria. And he lit a cigar. A CIGAR! In a cafeteria!

Now that's taking it a bit too far don't you think? If you want to smoke your stinky cigar, do it outside, or do it in a cigar lounge, or do it in your own house, but don't smoke it in the middle of a cafeteria at lunchtime! Do you really desperately need to smoke that cigar right then and there?

I don't care who you are or how important you are, but that's just plain disrespectful if you ask me!

Yechh - bad form.

To be honest, I'd rather smell a cigar than a cigarette - but preferably neither when I'm eating!

And if you ask me.

pretty darn annoying. Some clients think, just because they have the "budget", they can get away with anything - including being pure-play asses

to be honest, smoking is smoking. and where there is eating then smoking should be banned.

however i have to say that a cigar is much easier on the nose than a fag.. i hate the stench and stink of a cigarette..

ban smoking now!
