I am a bartender, which can be very difficult when it comes to quitting. Today was one of my hardest days (18 days in) and it was because of customers. What happens when you mix customer service with work and beer? A no good terrible day;) But at least I made it through still intact as a non smoker! Some days I wish I had this sign....
My oldest daughter is the general manager of an Irish Pub and she bartends and waitresses and jumps in and does everything needed, when it's needed. Her bartending stories make my blood run cold. I HATE it...some of the customers are downright abusive but she seems to be able to hold her own. She has over three years smoke free!
Hang in there,
Ellen
Congrats on 18 days. Like the sign!

Way to go! As a former serial quitter I usually found day 3, week 3, and month 3 (if I made it that far) the most challenging. STAY THE COURSE! ANOTHER SMOKEFREE DAY UNDER YOUR BELT! THE MORE 'HARD' DAYS YOU CONQUER THE MORE LIFE EXPERIENCES YOU ARE MASTERING WITHOUT RESORTING TO NICOTINE!
NEVER ANOTHER DAY ONE!

That is really interesting about day 3, week 3, month 3. Day 3 was awful and let’s face it...this whole week has been difficult. Thanks for the heads up on Month 3! I feel like I am also following this pattern:)
CONGRATS FOR CHOOSING TO KEEP YOUR NICOTINE FREE LIFE! GOOD JOB LOVING YOU AND NOT GIVING ANY CUSTOMER POWER OVER YOU! YAHOOO AND WAY TO GO!
