Can't tell if you're intentionally being a moron here or are actually ignorant. Smoking is proven to cause cancer. Whether cigars, cigarettes or shishas. Working in McDonalds does not cause cancer. Thus why there isn't a ban on fries.

Cant tell if your being a moron or actually Ignorant :rolleyes:

Majority of Shisha bars use herbal flavour which contains no tobacco.
It does not cause cancer, if you smoke the traditional shisha which has black gunky substance then I understand but this is not what you find in your standard shisha bar..

Seriously people post such jagged comments at people without knowing half the jug of water.

So hold on, what you're saying is the stuff that isn't Shisha isn't Shisha and doesn't cause cancer.
The stuff that is Shisha though is Shisha and does contain tobacco which does cause cancer...which is the stuff I was talking about.

Oh and the herbal/fruit varieties can and frequently do contain tobacco and other random crud which may also be a carcinogen.

when I used to smoke on a shisha pipe it was tobacco mixed in with that molasses stuff and was equally as dangerous as smoking a cigarette if not more.

There have been various NHS campaigns on Shisha, look it up. It's been years since I have smoked on one of them so I have no idea if the ingredients have changed.

How about just not working there.

Isnt it like me saying I dont want to come home with greasy skin and smelling horrible after working in McDonalds for 8 hours?

Plus the fact they wouldnt have a job if there was a ban on Sheesha's in a Sheesha bar!

How about banning fries in McDonalds or fried chicken in KFC

2 words - passive smoking.

ergo = ban.

Why the hell should I or any other non smoker have to breath in smokers carcinogenic arsenic ridden discharge because you fancied a fag?

And how does this even relate to indoor shisha lounges where it is contained and shisha is smoked within the building.

People you know go there because they want to smoke shisha not because they want to breath in other peoples vapour :rolleyes:

Gosh

It relates to people who have to work in that environment.

Gosh indeed.

1- Its relevant to the people that work there.
2- Check the quoted text from Guest in which he is specifically referring to smoking in general. Again relevant.

Gosh indeed.

I dont know about you and this comes from someone who has worked in those environments and someone who has been to many of these types of establishments in the past, but the people that work there are always people who know how to make shisha's and smoke it them selves. That base interest is required knowledge when working in such a place.

You would not be working there if you did not have some interest in that specific business. In Warehouse in London no one who worked there didnt smoke shisha or know how to prep the shisha.

It was a requirement for all staff to prep shisha and this knowledge came from there own interest and smoking the product themselves.

In the majority if not all shisha businesses this is the same.

So your point is essentially moot.

It's not though is it? Someone somewhere loves asbestos. It is by all means very good at what it does. People also have to clean the stuff up and choose to do so as it can pay quite well.

Would you expect them however to work on the stuff without a respirator and protective clothing?

No you would not, in the same way you wouldn't expect someone to have to breathe in a different but also dangerous substance at work every day.
