Sounds like you may have missed the point.

"I" missed the point?  And just what point would that be?

We talked about this at great lengths on several threads when this first came out.

What point are you talking about?!

Quit Smoking or Quit Your Job, U.S. Company Says

Posted on 01/26/2005 4:13:55 PM EST by Middle-O-Road

CHICAGO (Reuters) - The owner of a Michigan company who forced his employees to either quit smoking or quit their jobs said on Wednesday he also wants to tell fat workers to lose weight or else.

Next on the firing line: overweight workers.

"We have to work on eating habits and getting people to exercise. But if you're obese, you're (legally) protected," Weyers said.

Last year, he banned smoking during office hours, then demanded smokers pay a monthly $50 "assessment," and finally instituted mandatory testing.
