The same thing I smoke when I'm not working.
I tend to smoke alot of MM pouch tobacco (Missouri Pride & American Patriot) at work. The drive home is usually Escudo.
Usually something from one of the four blends I never run out of, whether working or idling. Sometimes I might throw in something I'm trying out.
I don't separate the two. I spend more time at work than at home.
No difference for me between work and leisure.
I work from home, so no difference there...but usually if I choose to smoke while I'm working, it will be a VaPer, or Sir Walter Raleigh Aromatic.
I take the blends I'm not overly fond of to work, and smoke them while on lunch or while doing a job outside.
The only time I’m not working, is when I’m sleeping.
Very stringent "NO SMOKING INDOORS/ IN ENCLOSED PREMISES" tobacco laws Downunder.
I like to switch it up between maybe 3 different blends. A burley, vaper and English type. But for more intense work something with some burley, Kentucky or both is a solid bet. A cool burning smoke that has some decent strength and tastes great no matter how you puff on it.
If it’s a somewhat sedentary job like driving or seeding some veggies in seed trays then a slow burning vaper flake is nice to have around.
then again it’s nice to have an English to…. When you wanna switch it up.
But if I had to choose 1….well I’m more of a Kentucky guy, but virginia tobaccos just don’t get old or wear you down as much in terms of flavour. The subtle nuances and steady progression of flavour during a bowl keep it easy but interesting. But you gotta smoke it slow! Which is probably the case as “day long”cadence is usually slower than “quick smoke at my lunch break” cadence. Ok my pipes done. End rant.

Preferably a simple medium strength burley forward blend in ready rubbed form.

An
And then you dream about working ?
Macbaren Scottish Blend.
Needs very little attention clear to the bottom of the bowl.

I've never enjoyed smoking my pipes indoors unless it was a sanctioned activity (i.e. everyone approved) so I probably wouldn't partake.
I home office every so often, and every so often I light a pipe ... I usually don't like to clench a pipe while I am concentrated with work, but it works sometimes. I don't have a preference ... whatever feels fine on the spot.
at work I smoke mainly Five Brothers and Semois. All on break and I need something stronger so my smaller pipe can give me some nicotine. Where if I smoke a more standard strength blend in my tiny pipe it will taste good but the nicotine won't really be felt.
