Alaska Airlines has an employee policy of no smoking. It is in their application.

A close relative of mine is dying from second hand smoke (lung cancer). Maybe these rules are to prevent more of the same to others. It is to protect, not deprive. Maybe if some folks weren't so selfish and thought of others...

I'm willing to bet you can't show me a death certificate that states unequivocally: CAUSE OF DEATH: SECOND HAND SMOKE.

Anecdotal BS never rings my chimes. Try it on the more credulous.

Why would you say something patently untrue? There is zero proof that second smoke causes lung cancer. Are you so caught up in your societal babysitting on this issue that you'll adopt any means to the ends?
