Alaska is a non-smoking airline. I was tested 11 years ago. I don't know if they test today but I believe they do.

Smoking is just stupid. I wouldn't hire you simply based on what it says about you and your personality. Dipping is just as bad. There is not much worse than setting up the cockpit for my flight and finding a dipping cup full of someone's, God knows what.

I suppose you can adopt the attitude of comedian Dennis Leary. "Sure they say smoking takes 5 years off your life. But aren't those the worst 5 years of your life?"
