Been there, done that…sat in report with the smokers turning the air blue…sat at the desk with the supervisor smoking away…wore the white DRESS (not a pantsuit) uniform and the cap and the hair up off the collar…was ever so grateful when pants were allowed (remember, the dress style was MINI skirts at the time; I actually recycled one of my dresses as a top later on).
