I work for a hospital run by the Church of Latter Day Saints (well, that whole concept is debatable) and if they SMELL tobacco on you prior to your shift they SEND you home for being UNDER THE INFLUENCE! Also verboten: pepper (stimulant), real meat, (they are vegetarians) and salt (Nu-salt is on all the cafeteria tables.) Of course you are free to eat meat, salt and pepper at home, but it's not included on their menu's for the patients or in the cafeteria. All the patients eat soybased meats---and they complain incessantly about the food as you would imagine. Also, the only people to advance in this organization are-you guessed it!- Latter Day Saints. They don't promote anyone of any other religion. Don't ask me how they get away with it.
