I want to know when people started get diagnosed with it.

For me it isn't so much of an allergy, but if I have been working hard all day on something, just at the point of migraine, cigarette smoke will instantly set one off for me. Not something I particularly blame cigarette smokers for. Usually means I've neglected how stressful I was.

And no, being in the room with a drinker is not going to slowly kill me (and either is being in the room with a smoker) - but that drinker is going to kill me quickly and painfully as they drive home.

I can't see how this supports your argument.

But if you have really bad asthma, a good cigarette is sometimes more helpful than a nebulizer.
Personally, give you guys a room to smoke in if the owner feels like it. The problem with that is if a server does not want to come in contact with the smoke, he has a chance of loosing his job. If this happens, there will be "discrimination" against people those unwilling or unable to work in smoke. So what do you do? I have no strong opinions against smoking, and therefore I have though of no good solutions.
