To those who quit smoking and become total a-holes

I am not forcing you to quit... I am glad that you chose to quit... HOWEVER... being a total A-HOLE at work and telling people to do things that are YOUR job and making it uncomfortable for others at the workplace is completely unacceptable...

I should not have to hide in my office all day to avoid your bit**y attitude.

That is all

    Kinda the same way that people on a diet can be really *****y to everyone around them.

    That's me :embarassed: ... not at work though but I do lose my temper even more at home, especially if something interferes with my work-out plans or meal planing.

    They'll get over the moods. They're just trying to improve their health, same as you are. Would you be so annoyed with them if they can cut off sugar as part of a diet and become cranky during the adjustment period?

    Ohhh, Those people need to feck off. I quit 8 months ago, if the smoke bothers me now I just move downwind. It only gets to me if I have a sore throat though.
    Just pity them and their self-righteous attitude. Morons.

    Maybe cut them a little bit of slack for a few days, overcoming a nicotine addiction feels like total awfulness the first few days.

    Difference is... I hid myself going through the mood swings - not made the whole office hide instead! lol

    I have to be honest. I can't see how this:
    I am not forcing you to quit... I am glad that you chose to quit...

    relates to this:
    being a total A-HOLE at work and telling people to do things that are YOUR job and making it uncomfortable for others at the workplace is completely unacceptable...

    Are they making you go outside because you're still a smoker? Otherwise I don't really see the connection (I know people that have never smoked or still so smoke who are complete A-holes in the office!)




    Most ex-smokers are b****es though! I was (still am?)!

    I quit 2 days ago and I am not that bad but I do have my moments. Its a hard adjustment just like people who eat when they are upset, drink when mad etc. We have to be supportive towards others. When we are use to a certain comfort it's hard to make that transition if your all alone and given the cold shoulder by others.

    They quit and became total jerks in the office... I totally support them in their desire to quit, but being a jerk while in the office to everyone is not acceptable. IMO

    This. Going through a difficult life experience doesn't mean you get a free pass to treat other people like garbage. Some people are better at hiding their feelings than others, but the very least you can do when you snap at someone unnecessarily is apologize, rather than justify it with "I'm having a really hard time right now." Otherwise, you're going to end up healthier and surrounded by people who hate you.

    at least there is a reason behind why someone might me off for a few days if they quiting smoking but there are people out there that treat people with disrespect everyday and dont even realise. im sure whoever you are talking about knows how they have acted and really do regret and feel bad about it.

    Guilty. This was me last year when I quit. I lost it on the cleaner at my work for vacuuming the same damn spot over and over and over again until my head was about to explode so I went over unplugged his vacuum and didn't say a word. OH well..I could care less about the people I pissed off while quitting... at least I won't die of lung cancer now. And YES I had to be bit**y.

    ^^ What she said ^^ I've given up many things trying to be healthy and I have yet to snap at those around me for no reason. Some people are just *kitten* and can't help it.
