FREE THE EARTH FROM DEVIL SMOKE

Failed intellectuals, arm-chair revolutionaries, frustrated utopians, tyrannical tycoons, spoilt spitritualists, profiteers, corrupt capitalists, lecherous leftists- all have ganged up against humanity in an unholy alliance.

whatever your views, whatever your religion, language, caste, color, creed, credo, nationality, profession, ideology, culture or any idiocyncracy --remember one thing that you will have to live, breathe, drink and eat on this planet EARTH. Therefore you have an obligation and equal right like anyone else to keep this planet livable and breathable. Cigarette smoking is one of the major causes that are making this planet unlivable. Rid yourself of this satanic evil if you are gripped by it and stand up against it. Join my blog and let our voices become one. Let there be synergy in our efforts.

WORKERS THINK 'SMOKING BREAKS ARE UNFAIR

58 percent workers think 'smoking breaks' are unfair

London,28 October

More than half of workers dislike colleagues who go out for a cigarette and think that the time should come out of their salaries, a survey has revealed.
A total of 58 percent are angry over “unfair” breaks while just one in four think that smokers should be paid the same.
However, 16 percent of people surveyed said that their colleagues should only be paid less if taking more breaks lowered their productivity.
The survey carried out by consumer website Watch My Wallet, was done during Stoptober, the initiative to quit cigarettes over 28 days this month.
“We were stunned. It’s amazing to think that a majority of the country is silently seething about the amount of time smokers spend away from their desks,” the Daily Express quoted Watch My Wallet spokesman Sean O’Meara as saying.
Amanda Sandford, of anti-smoking charity Ash, said that smokers should have shorter lunchtimes or stay late.
But Simon Clark, of the smokers’ lobby group Forest, said taking time out for a cigarette was no different to taking coffee breaks or making personal calls.
