I'd have to agree that unless this cat is a way better choice I'd keep interviewing. Then there's maybe counseling him. I mean there are so many places that one cannot smoke anymore, work place should not have to be an exception. I know you're a small company but I doubt he'd be able to smoke at a company with more than 50 employees. And if so, only on designated breaks in a designated area. AFA bringing the smell back to his work area is concerned, maybe you need better air circulation.

I'm a non smoker, never smoked and cigarette smells do offend me. But I don't go ape siht over it, I just move away.

If he couldn't make the interview without stinking, he is going to stink every day at work. You will be around it all of the time. You are going to hate it.

Sorry, need to pass on this one.

Is that worse than the Harbor Freight China smell?
