I'd love to chime in here, but I waste a lot of company time screwing around on the internet. There is a legitimate argument I think if you are not allowed to take 15 minute breaks periodically throughout the day. Perhaps my workplace is more lenient than some, but if we want we can leave for 15-20 minutes and go for a walk, grab a snack or just zone out. If you want to smoke in that time or just let off some steam it's pretty much up to you.

I'd definitely be up in arms if there was a "no leaving the office" policy though.
