Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

and I've been told that you are actually entitled, as a non-smoker to the same breaks that smokers get, but I doubt management would agree.

i would surf the net when people went for a fag break. My boss who could see my screen didn't say anything untill towards the end of the day. when he asked me what I thought I was doing I said "having a no-smoking break" he thought about it and said "carry on then"

I have noted that throughout my working life, that addicts being addicts, generally just take the piss, and regardless of what is said by management,will smoke for as long and as often as they like, and especially if one of the managers is an addict as well.
Maybe non-smokers should just get an extra day off once a fortnight.

10 mins per break, 3 breaks per day = 2.5hrs per week. Leave at 3pm on a Friday? Yes please!

where I work most of them would take at least 10 minutes an hour.
The smokers are always the last in, by about 5 min, then duck off again after our "team brief", squeeze another 2 between starting and smoko. Then usually a pre-smoko , a couple during smoko, a post smoko, then repeat this between smoko & lunch, then lunch & home time. As well, 1 will go, ask his mates if they're going too, as he's finishing another will show up, so they all have another with them, sometimes 20 min at a time. Depending on which smoker I use, I'm reckoning about 1-1.5 hrs a day.

They'll probably die earlier too, so they won't do as much work, an extra weeks holiday should even it out!

It's law, they're not allowed to discriminate. So either everyone gets breaks, or smokers stay in.
