Conservatives want to bring back the smoking rooms in Tim Hortons ultimately, and fuck the planet.

smoking rooms are still common in Korea. they're quite nice. they are walled off so you don't have to smell it
I've seen them done well in airports. They have additional extraction and filtering. They are also kept at a negative pressure, so the smoke doesn't roll out whenever someone opens the door.
I've no issues with what people want to put into their bodies. I only take offence when others are forced to be exposed to it.
People such as the staff who have to work in the smoke filled environment?
I'd definitely be the annoying shit on that one. I would insist on proper PPE for the environment. If the smokers in the team want to handle it without PPE, that's entirely on them.
It's also worth noting the smoking rooms are effectively empty, except for lights and some seats. Most staff can avoid it entirely.
Have the employees who smoke work the smoking section. Let us light up with the customers we serve! /s
Edit: I like @Cynar's idea too. Full respiratory gear like a firefighter. lol
Yeah, it seems fine honestly when I'm in places where they're common. I appreciate how we have less substance use than they do on other continents, though, and making it inconvenient might have something to do with it.
