I'm A "Smoker Moaner" - A Great Comment! - I Actually Feel Like A Non-Smoker Promoter All around Mount Druitt!

In my life I have been called many nicknames and one or two was offensive and in today's world in not offensive. It was just the way I heard it was being said.

The names I can recall I have named are, 'Sibo' (unable to pronounce my last name Svoboda), 'Slob cake'  (based on a cake my mother used to bake for friends when I was in a scout troop and finally, 'WOG'!

Now the younger people of today may not know what it means today and it is not as bad as it sounds. The meaning is, 'Western Oriental Gentleman'! That wasn't so bad. When I first heard of it, I thought it related to being Asian because it was using the word 'Oriental'.

Because I was repeatedly bullied at school and one day bashed for being a 'wog', I had to leave the high school I was at after first term of year seven. My parents were involved, the PRincipAL of the school according to my parents was not supportive or wanted the matter investigated and that was it.  My life changed because of one word.

Just overnight, I have received a comment from a community member that I am a 'Smoker Moaner' and because of that they won't visit this website again. At first it reminded me of being called, "WOG", but then  I thought at least the reader is pas sion ate of smoking, sticks up for smokers until one day he/she may have to quit. I think it is good now to be a "Smoker Moaner", yet I would change the name to "Non-Smoker Promoter", which represents a cleaner & healthier life and finally less stress for.

I can not and will not tell people to stop smoking, I can only ensure that measures and checks are put into place to ensure that there is no smoking in designated public areas.

As we are looking to have an improved community within and around Mount Druitt, we are all seeking ways to make it cleaner, safer and healthier for all of us to live in. Further more, we want to see a brighter and all facilities improved, if we do not ask we do not get.

I hope one day, the commenter if and when gives up smoking, returns back to this website!
