walk outside and have the same break as they do, simple.
just stand away from the smoke. Can't have some having extra breaks while others are still working.
at our DO, everyone is on IPS or prepping frames and once all is covered and finished people can go about their normal business inc smoke breaks etc.

Re: Fresh Air Break
Smoke breaks!!! Lucky bar stewards!!
As a smoker i have one at 05 55 as i'm walking in to work, my next one wont be until anywhere between 9 and 10 depending on when i'm all set and ready to go.
I might get lucky on a Tuesday and only have to wait til 0830

Re: Fresh Air Break
My boss has one about every 15 minutes.
But it's ok, as they 'come in early everyday to make up for it'.

Re: Fresh Air Break
Of course its not fair that smokers get more breaks than non-smokers but you get the satisfaction of staying alive for longer.

Re: Fresh Air Break
I smoke a fat joint on my way to work. Then a couple of hits from the crack pipe after prep. Sometimes I like to drive the RM van into the local woods, then hot box that bad boy. Get real mashed
