I think most jobs benefits from this, not just office work. A short time away from work, quick walk does wonders for your mental health. Some people smoke because that gives them the excuse to get outside for a few minutes now and then :-)

That's very true, but when you think about it, it's kind of strange that you need an excuse in the form of a cigarette in order to refresh your mind. People somehow seem to think that a cigarette break is OK since the person is "doing something" but if the same person just takes a walk it might be perceived as slacking.
