I disagree with not hiring people over it. I think smokers should be eligible for the job position, just told they can't smoke while they are on the clock, and they can't smoke on the business property.
When I was a little younger, and worked at Panera Bread. The GM was a real asshole! He let the smokers smoke 5-6 times a shift, no questions asked. When I asked him if I could step outside for a minute because I was stressing, he said no.
Since than I have started smoking and have a career... I smoke off and on... When I am not smoking, I still go outside with the peeps from work and talk with them. I think it depends on the work you do. Because at my job, I do a lot of video recording... 45min - 2 hour recordings every day, over and over. So I will go outside and smoke during a recording, so its less productive yeah, but I am not missing out on anything either.
