I have to the conclusion that 8 out 10 guys in Kuwait smoke and it drives me nuts. I go to another work place at night since we are getting some business off the ground. That is taking a lot of work, number crunching, paper work, talking to people, and organizing details. I had my role and the other guys had theirs but at the same time we are all interacting with customers. Some of them are friends, and some are friends of friends, but they are all still customers so you have to put up with a lot of things.

I previously wanted to make the environment no smoking, but I realized from day one that would be impossible and everybody smokes. I told them that I hate the smoke, but that didn’t even stop them. I’m thinking about getting a mask because it really is driving me nuts, I can’t stand smoke. They think I’m laughing now, but at one point I’m going to pull a fire extinguisher on them and it isn’t nice to be on the receiving end of one of them. The bad part is I know it affects me more then it does the smokers since I have been a non-smoker all my life. A gas mask will be added to the next list of supplies for myself.
