I like the warning put on smokes in Mexico. "Use of this product will kill you"
It kind of hits right where it needs to without all the feelz.

Got hired years ago by a company that wanted me to install an app on my phone for shift schedules. I looked into and saw what the app really did. It was a tracking app. I told them I'm not installing the app.
They insisted that I had to install the app.
I told them to give me a business phone with the app on it. They said it had to be my personal phone.
I told them if it was really just for scheduling they can just put my name in the slots I work, and I'll print the sheet off of the work computer.
Again they said no, it had to be installed on my personal phone.
I quit.

Somebody that doesn't smoke and wants a job, doesn't want to smell the smoke on coworkers, doesn't want to wonder why they have to work while their coworkers go for free breaks.

I used to think that, but found out I was wrong. They can even use what you do on your free time in a court of law to discredit you or smear your reputation.
Think what you post here or anywhere else on the internet is just your business? People have lost their jobs based on something that they posted online. Because you think it is smart, cute, or funny, doesnt mean everyone will.
Some people are quick to go to your employer's website to disrupt the site and lose you your job.

Smokers take smoke breaks. They cost the company money in time and higher health insurance costs. These are legitimate concerns that need to be addressed.
