What if you're working there as opposed to drinking there?

I don't personally care one way or the other, but the pro-banning argument is really more about workers than patrons.

Smoking just bothers me no matter where I am or what I'm doing there. It's gross and I don't know why anyone would want to torture their body like that anyways.

A lot of people go to bars to eat, and it's really hard to eat when there's smoke all around you.

If you're working you should be darting too, so it's whatevs man.

Naw, but that's a good argument against it I guess. Maybe the law should be you can't go up to the barkeep with a dart lit.

I can't believe you can still smoke in bars in the US... Or whatever country. That would make my job a whole lot shi ttier.

Can you smoke in the bar or only in the beer garden?

The laws vary from state to state. In some states you can smoke in bars, in most you can't, and the exact details of the bans also vary from state to state.

And of course, depending on what bar you go into, they may not even pay attention to the ban. Whenever I go into a bar and see an ashtray on the counter, I shed a tear.

I don't think I could ever work in a bar where you could smoke inside. Especially if it were prone to drunktards.
