I live in California, compliance now ia virtually 100%. Incidentally, your insults reflect your own lack of integrity and we all see through the many nonsensical anecdotes you have supplied in this thread. Two non-smoking adults choosing the smoking section because they don't like the prissy company in the non-smoking section. Sure. Nico, you are good!
That explains a lot.
Maybe you should consider moving to America.
I don't give a flying flip where you live. I personally know that compliance in California is no where near 100%, nor is it in Delaware or New York or any other place you control freaks have attempted to destroy small businesses.
Incidentally, your insults reflect the poor upbringing you obviously had, because integrity is not a part of your vocabulary. If you don't like my anecdotes, don't read them. Calling me a liar, which you did, is again reflective of your poor upbringing.
BTW, we just left a gathering with friends, at the same establishment, there were 30-35 of us. Smokers and non-smokers were about evenly divided, but we were gathered in the smoking area. Among the group was the couple you don't seem to believe exists, they decided to surprise dad and show up today because his wife got here last night and they adore the step-mom.......and she smokes cigarettes (oh horrors). Each couple or group had seperate checks, but the pooled money for an extra tip was over $400 and a lot of those folks weren't planning on leaving anytime soon.
But of course that's just an anecdote from a "Nico" and therefore unbelievable to the likes of you gnatzies (small minds buzzing in other's business)
