Halloo fellow pipe smokers.

I've been a subscriber to PD for some time now, but have never submitted.
The reason I write is because I am an 18 year old female pipe smoker (which
is odd, but in Alberta, it's legal) that has recently been asked to work on
Sundays in my fave pipe/cigar bar, Burlington's. Now this is no problem for
me, but I suspect some controversy and discomfort will arise because of my
age, gender and some of the "the boys' club is exclusive" guys that will
come in. If anyone can give me any advice on how I should aproach this
subject, or any tricks and words of wisedom for working in a tobacconists,
it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Amanda Bouchard
