Re: Which is Worse for you, Cigarettes or Cigars?

Best Electronic Cigarette — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 04:26:52 -0000

An
average smoker spends more than $1000 on cigarettes each year. When this is
compared with the best electronic cigarette, the cost of one
pack is around $2.50. The cartridge of one e-cigarette is equal to two packs of
the real cigarettes.

Re: Quit Now! Or you will die!!!

Gail Gardner — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 03:59:23 -0000

As you mention, you have to want to quit and most people who don't - don't. But you CAN if you want to because many have before you. My Mother smoked 2-3 packs a day her entire short life. When her lung capacity was down to about 30% and she had to go on oxygen she just quit cold turkey. Apparently dying a slow, painful death was acceptable but going out in a big *boom* was not.

What boggles my mind is the number of respiratory therapists that smoke. When I worked as an IBM tech I had a major hospital as a client. A good friend spent 4 mos in intensive care there and I met all her caregivers.

It is one thing to be in denial when you don't have to face what smoking does on a regular basis, but when your job is watching people dying from smoking all day long every day it is hard for me to fathom how you can go outside on your break and smoke.

One thing that really helps reduce the desire for any kind of stimulant - nicotine, sugar and anything else - is plain Chromium. (Not Chromium Picolinate found in diet products - just Chromium.) It is an inexpensive supplement you can buy at health food stores. Take one about three times a day - usually with meals. It levels your blood sugar and reduces cravings. A wise old-timer who sold herbal remedies told me about it.

I mentioned it to my neighbor one year when he was plowing all night and was dipping way more than usual. I didn't think he'd bother, but he flagged me down about a week later all excited. He said he normally dipped a can a week but working all night he had been up to almost a can a day. He said wasn't consciously trying to cut down but he just was dipping almost none at all. The can he bought the day he bought the Chromium was still almost full.

Adam,

Why have you continuously glossed over the nasty unsanitary conditions or safety problems?

I've tried communicating directly. Now, I'd appreciate you answering my questions openly in text here.

I've held back on sharing my videos, as I feared doing so would hurt hotel's image and employees (plus, I don't want nastiness on my YouTube channel!). My documentation disproves your statements, stop fabricating.

I document the mundane more than most.

Please respond here. Thank you.

Darren,

I would be happy to talk to you over the phone about all the questions you might have about our policy's at the hotel. I am in Monday thru Friday from 8-5pm and my phone number is 920-733-8000 ext.1655. I look forward to hearing from you.

Adam,

Thanks for your note, however your typed words answered none of my questions, including explaining Radisson's do not disturb policy.

Yes, everyone seemed friendly. Restaurant was good. Liked location. These things don't dismiss your unhealthy and unsafe hotel.

Yes, I've denied your compensation. What kind of compensation is it anyway to ask someone to stay in a nasty room? This went beyond basic dirtiness. Here's a collage of photos from my stay.

Darren,

Thank you very much for your feedback. We take these issues very seriously, which is why the manager who spoke with you acted as quickly as he could to resolve the issues. He honestly thought that taking care of the issues and offering compensation for the inconvenience was the best route to go. As stated in the Radisson Guarantee, “Our goal at Radisson is 100% guest satisfaction. If you aren’t satisfied with something, please let us know and we’ll make it right or you won’t pay!” I completely understand how you perceived it, and moving forward we will talk with the guest about what we can do to fix the problem before acting. Hopefully someday you can give us another chance, because as you said, your colleagues room was very clean and our customer service was very good.

I am sorry we did not respond as quickly as we would have liked but we were reacting to the email to get things in place to ensure this does not happen again with our housekeeping and engineering departments.

Once again, thank you very much for your feedback; we truly appreciate it. Have a wonderful week and if there is anything else I can do for you, please do not hesitate to reach out to me personally. I will ensure you satisfaction!!

Director of Sales and Marketing

I like a good burger too Darren, but will not venture into a Wendy's, Mickey D's or BK for anything. I care too much about what I put into my body.

I'm surprised you haven't (yet) decided to eat and review good burgers ... ;-)
