Re: Orange County, Florida:Bans Use of Tobacco Products
This stinks. Glad I live in Polk county. Although, at work, I am sometimes stuck on parking lot cleanup detail. Guess what is the #1 most common piece of trash I find?
Not bottles, candy wrappers, chewing gum, or paper ...
It's cigarette butts.
I have come to despise cigarette smokers. They ruining it for the rest of us. While cigar smokers tend to be classy folks who enjoy a stogie in the fine outdoors, out on the golf course, or a finely appointed cigar bar, cigarette smokers have turned the world into their own giant ashtray, and it is partly for this reason that tobacco is now the demon du jour for politicians to pick on.
If they really wanted to do something to improve the health of county employees, they should stock the vending machines with only low fat, low calorie, "natural" snacks, like fruit.
