Some years back in the office, we had a microwave behind the wall but near our office area. A new worker moved in and raised a fuss about the microwave being too close, going on and on about supposed dangers of microwaves (even at distance), so it was moved to a less convenient location. As we soon found out, he was a heavy smoker, and took frequent breaks so he could go outside to smoke.
