One of the first things you may discover is that you can work long hours, and stay up late, without dip. But, you should be prepared. Have a bunch of seeds, fake dip, gum, whatever. The fake dip really does help with the cravings. In my area, Walmart carries Smokey Mountain.

When you hit a fog, get the body moving to help snap out of it.

Welcome Awkward, hey there are a lot of firemen and officers here that can help.
Regarding the munchies.. Munch on brother, what ever it takes to QUIT. Munchies will go away later. Today we focus on whipping the Nic B$#+h, she is there to destroy you and your fellow workers. Let that inviroment your in be a strength, bring on the suck.... We shouldn't be so scared to suffer.... It makes us stronger. PM me anytime... I'll suffer and quit with you any day. Some of my closest fishing buddies are firemen, and they have quit also. You got this.
Have you posted Roll yet?
I believe.....

Awkwood quits, again, for the last time.

Good afternoon. I've been a slave to tobacco for about 15 years. A can or more a day. As the title suggests I've attempted to quit many times before. Why have I failed? The usual excuses, reasoning, and weakness. "Just one more." "One pinch wont hurt." "I'm already quit, I'll quit again after this can." However, the biggest reason I believe is that I work in an industry that is saturated with the use of chewing tobacco. 'fireman' Every shift I work, the beast is there. If not in my pocket, in my partners.

I'm currently embracing day 6 of the suck, cold turkey. "Fog" is heavy. Crazy munchies. I wouldn't say that I'm edgy but everyone around me needs to quit being so damn annoying. Luckily I'm on day 6 of 9 days off from work. Spending this time mentally preparing to fight the beast when shift starts. There's no way I'm failing this time. I'm done. Sick and tired of it. Plus this time I have you guys. A source full of reasons to continue instead of just a mind full of reasons to fail.

Any suggestions for work and the munchies?
