As a former smoker, I'm sorry...

...to all those nonsmokers over the years that I've grossed out with the disgusting stench of lingering smoke.

I am currently training the temp who will be my replacement during my leave (who was an hour late on her first two days - I don't have high hopes for this one) and she positively reeks of cigarette smoke and there's not one thing I can do about it.  It's making me nauseous.  I just feel bad for having done that to so many folks while I was a smoker because it is truly disgusting.

Re: As a former smoker, I'm sorry...

  • ummmm gross.  one of my it guys is like that.  you can tell when he is in the building based on the smell of the hallway. 

    jess- i am sure you were, at a minimum, slightly less offensive.

  • I am always amazed at the number of nurses I see outside the hospital near my house that are out taking smoke breaks.  I've been around a a few that I can tell just had a recent smoke break and it's disgusting.  Even if they wash their hands, you can still smell it on their clothes.

    I had one nurse in the mat ward who smelled like this. I quickly requested another. I was already so nauseous from delivery that I didn't need the help of the smokey nurse.

  • My husband had biitched at me about it for YEARS but because I lived with my parents for so long, who both smoke, I never realized just how bad it is.  My car STILL smells and there's nothing I can do about it, which blows.

    It makes me mad at myself all over again for being a dumbasss 13 year old trying to be cool with her friends and smoking in the first place!

  • I would like to copy and paste this post and send it in an e-mail to my in-laws....
