I know what you mean. I'm slowly trying to heal a flu which still has me at a disadvantage.
Re "mandatory" -
Oy gevalt!! Making something mandatory is to me the very antithesis of freedom! Are you trying to use my medicine (i.e. disincentive) on smokers? Sorta like the bald birds who want to legislate that shamelessly punitive $1.xx cigarette tax?
Well, if a smoking baseball star is forced to spensd a week in a bar (ok, let's make this fun and make him a recovering alcoholic, to boot) how much of a pay increase would you give him to sweeten the deal? If it's a mandatory service, I'd think a reasonable increase over "day job" pay would be required, y'know, for fairness.
