Reply #60: Delaware was the 2nd state to go smoke free and I love it

No one forced anyone here to start smoking. I understand for baby boomers - smoking was treated like a healthy thing to do - but everyone younger than that has pretty much been giving all the warnings. So if someone chooses to smoke then they've chosen to obey the rules created in order to prevent non-smokers from inhaling the smoke. And I'm not talking about someone like me who probably is around a smoker maybe once a month. But for all the employees who have had to deal with this on a regular basis.

It took about 3 years to clean up my nasty smokers cough and I am a lifetime non-smoker. But I needed to wait tables in order to make ends meet and pay bills. I knew with waitressing I could make a really good salary but in order to make that money I had to put up with alot of smoke inhalation.
