Hi All. 51 d.o.f. For this girl! Just needing advice in preparing myself to return to a "smoking, chewing is the culture" job. I was layed off from a major railroad and got recalled, Im a new conductor. I was hired over 2 yrs ago and have barely worked ( not enough business). Im a nurse as well. Long story short, I am preparing for this transition. Change, stress, BIG heavy/ deadly trains to switch around in yards yada, yada. Oh and almost everyone (mostly men in the field) is on some form a nic. Be it cig, chew, cigar. So far I have been sheltered with a low key, never around smoke existance. I see myself succeeding BUT I thought I would nip this in the bud before Monday. Not that I wanna smoke but there may be many, many triggers. I must say making it this long sure has built up my confidence in general. I love it! Sorry if I do not respond for awhile. Its 10pm MT and I have the nursing gig tomorrow. Thanks in Advance. Best Regards : )
