Get Workers To Stop Smoking On My Property?
Some People Are Cleaning And Coating My Deck. My Dad Is The Person Who Hired Them, And They All Smoke, On My Property! I’m 10000000000000000000000000000000000 % Agains’t Any Smokers, And I Hate Smokers. They Smoke And They Leave Butts All Around My House, And It Reaks Of Smoke Untill A Good Rain. Sure, It’s Outside, But It Still Is Horrible. I Tell My Dad To Tell Them To Stop Smoking Around The House, But He Just Laughs, as If It’s A Joke. I Can’t Let My Poor Cats Outside Untill It Rains, As One Already Died Of a Lung Problem From Smoke From Outside (RIP Fuzzle) How Do I Get My Dad To Know I’m Not Joking And I Mean It When I Say It?!
No, They Stay Around For A Long Time, It’s An All Day Job, and It Takes 3 Weeks Every Day! And The Sand Won’t Work, Since They Are Using Chemicals And Stuff, Nothing Can Be On The Deck And They Probably Won’t Notice It (I Already Tried It Once, It Didn’t Work)
Okay, I Wan’t To Tell Them To Just Stop Smoking, But Come On, I’m 11, They’ll Just Laugh! And I Can’t Just Fire Them! My Dad Has No Problem With Them Smoking. And They Won’t Listen, Besides, I Don’t Want Them Smoking On My Property, and I Can’t Just Send Them To My Poor Neighbors Or Something, So It Will Be Just As Bad If a Put An Ashtray Near Them!
Yeah Right, Compassion For Smokers! I’m Sorry, But No. I Do Have An Insane Hate For Smokers! Now, You, Paul D, Seem Like A Good Smoker, But They Aren’t. Besides, It’s Not Really My Property, But I Live here, And I Believe I Have All Rights To tell Them To Go Away, My Dad Won’t Want That! We Need Them To Do The Job, But They Suck! And, I’m Not Getting Rid Of The Deck, That’s Pretty Insane, It’s A Great Deck!
Oh Really? I Know Nothing About Smoking? Really? That’s Wierd, I Thought I Did…..But Who Knows, I Mean, I Don’t Know Anything About Myself, Do I?
OH COME ON!! I KNOW PLENTY ABOUT SMOKING! It Kills, I Make People Fugly, And It Stinks, It Has Lots And Lots Of Deadly Chemicals, And My Cat Died From Second Hand Smoke! The Cat Had Lung Problems, Not Leukimeah (I Know, Misspelling) And, You Don’t Even Know Me, So Don’t Just Guess I Know Nothing! I Also Know It’s A Disgusting, Ugly Habit, And It Makes Greenhouse Gasses Even Worse!
So, Don’t Think You Know Me! No One Knows Me, Espiceacly (I Know, More Misspeling) A Dumb A** Smoker Like You!
And, It’s Not Like I Let My Cat Out The Second The People Were Done, But It Really Wreaked Of Smoke For A Week, And Come On, I’m Not That Dumb!
Besides, I Help My Parents Pay The Bills, And I Like Helping The House Debt, Or Whatever You Would Call It! So I Call It My Property, As A Pay About 30% Of The Bills! It’s Fair, And That Is My Deck!
The workers are not going to be around that long.
Leave them alone and let them get their job done.
Put a pail full of sand out there for their cigarette butts… you can enrich the sand with baking soda to suck up that funky smoke smell.
…………….
If this is your house then you just tell them not to smoke in and around your home…show them somewhere they can smoke…and leave some ashtrays near by for them to use..or else get rid of the decking and then you wont need these work men near your home.
…….
let them finish their job and provide ashtrays or a old coffee can and tell them if you must smoke then this where you put your cigarette butts otherwise fire them and let someone else do the job
…….
Since your Dad hired them it is his responsibilityh to inform them not to smoke on the property if that is your wish. Since he just laughs at you, and you are the property owner, call the employer of the people, and inform them that they are not permitted on the property any longer if they can’t respect you as the property owner.
I am a smoker, and I work as a caretaker/grounds keeper on an island. The clients are the ones who pay my salary, and I do what is needed to keep them happy. They don’t smoke, so I do not smoke on their property or near their summer homes either.
It is called courtesy.
With that said, you are blowing all of the smoking things that you say are prevalent around your property out of proportion. You are being a bit hateful towards smokers and that is actually discrimination towards a group of people. You said it yourself, you “HATE” smokers. Not all smokers are bad people. Some of us are willing to be polite and courtious towards those in the world who do not smoke. Learn a little compassion in life, you actually might get further with your desires.
