You are welcome Alice. Really watch those people smoking. The first one may look tempting. But in a few minutes they will light another, then a few minutes later another and soon after that another. Pretty soon you will recognize that they are smoking in a way that you don't want to. They are also smoking in a way that they don't want to. They don't have a choice, you do. You could smoke just like them if you want. You can smoke them under the table if you want. You could smoke nothing if you want. They just have to smoke. That concept will get you through.
When you get home at night, you can take a sigh of relief not to be stuck in that life again. But as you take your sigh, you will probably smell the stench of their smoke permeating your clothing and your hair and your general being, and better take a shower and get the clothes ready for the laundry. You don't want to smell like that again tomorrow. You see, with a little soap and fresh clothes you have the choice of smelling better the next day, your smoking friends and colleagues don't have that choice either.
Hang in there Alice. Never take another puff!
Joel
