Do you think that if they had the option of a test where they could see if you'd used marijuana in the last 24 hours they would use that instead? Hmmmm, maybe I'll go and find the head of the medical department here and suggest this as a research area, that'd be pretty sweet.

coffee is good, drink it. NOW

Yes I think if pot were legal..deciminlized and the employer didnt want the person(s) coming to work stoned..high on anything the should have a test..accurate..that could narrow down the time of consumption...

But it would have to be less then 24 hrs..cause there is between 12-16 from the time I get off to the time I am scheduled to back at work...

But if it were to remain illegal...well I would be screwed regardless..

wellllllll, marijuana is a natural plant, and so is tobacco, one is legal one is not. If the government was any smart, they'd allow it, and tax it. But then it'd be **** quality. If anything alcohol should be banned. way more destructive / dangerous.

And the s*hitty quality issue is one reason I dont want it completely legalized...but there are always going to be people that wanna grow it and sale it..even in small quanities..

Medically..people should have the best there is to offer...

I don't see much different between coming to work high and coming to work drunk as hell.

It would be more dangerous to come to work drunk, but neither should be condoned.

NaNaNer · 02-26-2007, 02:26 PM

Ummm no..it would be much more dangerous to come to work drunk then stoned..

I speak from experience..not to be mistaken with ignorance...

I have worked many a job stoned..stoned..very..but cant even walk straigh when really drunk.

I though "drunk" and typed "high." Brainfart

I think it balances out depending on what you're high on or how drunk you are.
