It’s super weird that OP (an account with no other history) posted this with a personal anecdote claiming they went to this gym, when that exact image has been reposted all over reddit for literally years.

The smell must be so nasty…

How is smoking even allowed in a gym? I would never go to a place like that.

I don’t think it is hence she was fired.

It’s called a rage bait - and it’s working.

Must be making bank on that ass to afford that many cigarettes.

If we assume she sleeps 8 hours a night and is awake for 16 hours, then she smokes one cigarette every 10 minutes.
If we take into account she is doing other things during the day where she cannot use here hands, like eating or doing “fitness”, this decreases to approximately 9 minutes.
Now, the average smoker needs 5-7 minutes for smoking one cigarette, meaning she has 2-4 minutes of “fresh air” between two cigarettes.
I don’t really believe that tbh. I never heard of a person smoking that much

You’ve obviously never met a chain smoker before then. I have met plenty of people in the past working manual labour jobs who would literally light another one up the moment the old one is spent, usually lighting the new one from the old one. So it is entirely believable to me.

Trust me. They exist. If they get old enough to see the consequences of it, at 60, they have what doctors call “accelerated aging” and basically have the body of someone over 90.

Gyms pay well enough to set that much money on fire? 🤔
80-90 smokes a day… Not a smoker so imma have to google this shit…
Pack of cigarettes is 20, so that’s 4.5 packs a day. 31.5 a week. 136.5 a month. 1,638 a year.
Price varies by state due to taxes, here they are $11.16 a pack. In New York? $14.55. North Carolina looks to be the cheapest at $7.95.
So she’s literally setting on fire at least $500.85 every paycheck, assuming she gets paid every 2 weeks. $35.78 a day. $13,022.10 a year, minimum.
Possibly as much as $916.65 every 2 weeks if she’s in New York. $65.48 a day. $23,832.90 a year up in smoke.
Of course, I did know one addict who smoked so much, he would drive to New Mexico and buy them on the reservation tax free. Fill up his trunk and drive back.

Self aware wolf here.
Smoke 80-90 cigs a day, even while working on a gym and, apparently, that wasn’t a good reason to fire her?
GeriatricGambino@lemmy.world 2 months ago
With a daily volume of cigs creeping up on the triple digits, I kinda wonder how she managed the self restraint not to lit up and blow the smoke right there in the job interviewer’s face

Wouldn’t consider doing something that is detrimental to others as a hobby.

That’s a lot of tabs to be chonging in an average day
Nothing is real any more is it?
I wouldn’t be surprised if OP is the lass in the post
tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Well, at four packs a day, she’ll be weathered and seventy by the time she’s thirty.
Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
I don’t know why, but I just assumed UK for this. I have no evidence at all, it’s just a specific kind of gross, and manner of speech, (especially calling people who complain about the smoke idiots) that I can just only hear as Chav.
Jrockwar@feddit.uk 2 months ago
Yeah she sounds like the particular brand of idiot that we have in the UK. I fortunately don’t see that many of those… but still enough to find that sort of attitude recognisable.
biofaust@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I don’t think she looks fit. She has more muscle mass than the average girl her age maybe, but her upper body is likely underdeveloped and her spine is definitely fucked up.
Aarrodri@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Any videos of the cray cray in action?
genuineparts@infosec.pub 2 months ago
Smoking 4-5 packs a day and being healthier that 99% of the people. Yeah… not for long.
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 2 months ago
she definitely didn’t get their overnight, so I’d say she’s already not there.
In any case, it’s illegal to smoke inside public buildings in most places; at least, in the US. I would be shocked if she wasn’t in violation of that. (Some states allow designated smoking rooms, but that’s a different matter.) And it doesn’t matter if your blowing the smoke “away”… if some one can smell it, they’re breathing second hand smoke.

Would be funny if that was topped by couple liters of alcohol. Winston Churchill of a fitness instructor.
GeriatricGambino@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah even Churchill would find it extremely funny, considering that he famously never exercised.
