I find it mildly infuriating that some coworkers think entering a break room gives them license to play loud music over speakers, use obscene language (especially to and about other coworkers), and disrupt the fifteen minutes of peace and quiet some of us crave in the workplace.

I also can’t stand the fact that smokers can take unlimited ‘breaks’ whenever they please just to come back stinking up an entire room with their smoke.

    Its not logical. You wanna be logical, factor in what makes an efficient worker. Frequent breaks and if they happen to be addicted to nicotine, which isnt great for their sake, tending to their addiction so they dont become less efficient. And thats looking at it from a non-empathetic, nurturing POV. Throw in basic human empathy and you have a lot more reasons to why this wasn’t a logical response.
