Regarding the idea of banning vapers in the work place, this is my view. It should not be one law to rule them all. Employers/companies should be free to assess their own individual situations. I respect the wishes of non vapers, we're all humans & we have to share the same spaces. In fairness to non vapers, they do have their right to clean air removed if vapers do not respect their space.
Ok so we know it won't harm them, coffee smells as well & so does a cheese & onion sandwich etc etc.. & there is more pollution in the air as we commute than any e cig can cause. Honestly though, that particular area of e cig legislation to me is a minor detail. I don't expect to be allowed to either smoke or vape in an enclosed space among non smokers & non vapers.
I'm not against the vapers who want to vape in the office etc, but i also don't see it as a big deal if we can't. There are other areas of proposals & ideas regarding over legislation of vaping products which i find far more pressing & important.
Let's not forget that to achieve a fair balance we must not see ourselves as exceptions any more than non smokers & non vapers. Everyone pays their tax & we all have our views.
If they ban vaping in the work place, i won't complain. If they make vaping difficult to access or if they impose their tpd laws on it, i'll shout to the hilltops. I just want to be able to continue what i do & for it to be a sustainable activity for my future. I don't drink nowadays, can't afford to go out very often, i don't use any other substance apart from caffine, they've pushed the smoker out of me & now i will vape all i like.
