I guess my issue is that I work for my employer 40 hours a week.  The rest of the time is mine and I can do anything I want durring that time so long as it doesn't affect or disrupt my workplace.

The key there is "doesn't affect or disrupt my workplace".


Very few smokers can smoke only at home. Most have to leave their post during the day to smoke. Further, by smoking you are opening yourself up to numerous diseases that will likely impact your work performance, either through absenteeism or decreased physical capability. In all cases, the end result is less money made by the employer. Why should a private (or public for that matter, since it's my tax money doing it) organization essentially subsidize your poor health? After all, by paying you while you underperform, either through smoke breaks or reduced productivity, that's exactly what they are doing.
