My grandmother just told me to just tell them when my last day will be and if they protest to say "tough". HAHAHA. But I guess she's right. I will never use them as a reference so who cares.
You must listen to your grandma!
You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Dumb question: When someone quits smoking cold turkey, about how long does it take for the nicotine withdrawal symptoms (esp. irritability) to set in and subside?

If we're talking about my mother, 25 years.

DX - zip it. I have met them and they seem sane. They are not all young crazy kids - they are parents and settled type folks. Sure, there will be long hours for deadlines and stuff, but they swear mostly normal work days.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
If you have insurance, they can proscribe drugs for that. A friend of mine was on them when he quit, but he never really got irritable, so they just made him super cheery. He had to get off them because his wife who'd just had a baby couldn't take it.

That's it, that's all I got. That and this crippling sense of being a big old faker. Back to Forgotten Calculus I go.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Set in? About as long as the person usually goes between cigarettes. Subside? God only knows. I think "they" say four days or a week or something.

Anne - that really depends on the person and how much they smoked. I quit cold turkey and probably was at my most irritable two days in for about 2-3 days, but I was mostly a social smoker and probably only averaged 1/3 pack a day when I quit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
