yeah, i have asthma myself, so i kind of detest smokers who stand near me . especially at bus stops, grrr.

at the hospital i used to work at - there was a smoking area for staff only, and the patients were allowed to on the grounds outside. this was a general hospital - it had a psych ward - but did all the usual hospital stuff too.

they made it that the staff had to go to a particular area to smoke, because they didnt like that we were sending the wrong message about it being acceptable.
