So Pam Jenkins is under the impression she owns the rights to the word "cupcakery"? In all 50 states?
I think Betty Crocker and Duncan Heines should sue her.

According to NV Labor Commissioner:

Nevada is an "employment-at-will" state, meaning that an employer may terminate the relationship at any time and without any reason. The employer cannot discriminate based on sex, race, color, national origin, age, religion, or disability.

IMO, if you are a non-smoker as am I, don't go looking for work where people normally smoke.
As far as dining, this town has no shortage of fine restaurants where one can escape 2nd hand smoke.

Employers are responsible for providing a safe work environment during the hours worked; not for guaranteeing personal health.

Good for you Rod...

Read the second story in the Sun Archives (date: 4/29/09). It's very interesting the tremendous list of benefits the IAFF has garnered for it's membership.
I believe all other local union benefits pale in comparison. I guess it's about the risk to life?

Interesting comment/stats Mike.
Makes me wonder what kind of homeowners insurance people in Gardnerville are paying.
Probably less than me in Green Valley Ranch, if I were to guess at the math.
