Their parent can't trade it for their crack or cigarettes.

I still stopped by periodically and would find cigarette butts, left over fast food bags, napkins, etc. in the one property that was up for rent during this time. 

As for minimizing theft I actually have a guy on the street I buy cigarettes for and give him a little money to keep his eyes on things for me.  

Many of those I worked with would say 'where did it all go' as they neared retirement & yet they always had the lease vehicle(s) (some 2 or 3 in the family), the various club memberships, 2 pack a day cigarettes & those nights at the bars that they cannot remember etc etc. 

I put cigarette smoke in the same category as asbestos, radon, mustard gas, etc...

Maybe he's hoping Obama will take his suggestion next time he tries to hide his cigarette smoking from Michelle.

I guess I should be grateful mine just threw cigarette butts and the occasional beer bottle.

No cigarette in hand, because as soon as he sees my screen door open, he stubs out his cig.When they (the smoker guy and his girlfriend) signed the lease, I reiterated to them very strongly that there is no smoking allowed anywhere on the premises, and they initialed that page of the lease that includes the no smoking clause, in italics.  

They can pay me $25/hr AND as a result, they can’t buy their giant fountain pop from the gas station on the way, or a couple less packs of cigarettes, one less trip through the drive through, or no fancy nails this month.

Works great with cigarette smell.
