Nope.
Might be something new on the streets in Texas. I know once you smoke some jazz cabbage you're turned into a blabbering drooling fool. Oh wait, that's our president. |

Quoted: I was at the grocery store yesterday and two guys working in the meat department looked really high. One of the boys was loading small packages of meat into spring loaded bins and was throwing the small packages in the hole making a shooting sound ever time one hit in one of the holes then he would go, "DING"! Lol Other places too like the guy who fills my propane bottles down at the gas plant. Lol some more. But, I don't need that shit. I am reality.  Has anybody noticed this too? I can't believe that in Texas it's still illegal to possess with so many people doing it now. Thanks in advance. Go!  I am no expert in this and the only reason I know this is due to getting cancer. I guess a cancer diagnosis is some sort of weed exemption. I got showered in gummies from California, Colorado to New Mexico. And while they do help with sleeping, I wouldn't have sought THC out under "normal" circumstances. So I ran out of pure THC gummies from a legal state and just went to a "smoke/vape" shop. Holy shit! They have all kinds of weed/shroom products. From delta 9 vapes, to actual buds that are somehow legal. To dabs? Gummies that are every bit as strong as the ones from N.M. They even have delta 9 "nano" shots ( like a liquid gummy) in different flavors like vanilla, cherry etc. that you can get in a fountain drink. It will definitely change your perception and none would even know your coke was the equivalent of a big ass doobie. So weed might be illegal. However, The legal options available in Texas are as strong if not stronger. This has really exploded in the last year or so. |

His boss, a handicapped senior woman just gave a weird look when I said that's why the cart has bumpers eta, the stoners are supposed to smoke indoors Michigan state law specifies that any use of cannabis must take place in private, such as the user’s own residence. It is illegal to use cannabis in a public space. It is also illegal to carry cannabis in areas frequented by children, such as schools or school busses. https://www.clickondetroit.com/news/michigan/2022/05/19/a-guide-to-michigans-recreational-marijuana-laws-what-you-should-know/ |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Try going anywhere in Michigan, fast food especially. I stopped at a McDonalds in Michigan a couple months back on the way back south to Indiana because the kids were hungry and I wanted something fast. Every single employee was out in the grass next to the parking lot smoking weed. We left immediately, and didn’t bother stopping anywhere else until we were back in Indiana. Damn Michiganders and their pot needles. Meth is the real issue in rural MeatChicken, parents smoking pot in front of their kids is another, most of the kids who grew up near the muck farms a few miles down the road at mostly not right with Attention disorders, don't get their meds as the parents are doing them instead. |

Move to a non-free state?
When California opened up cannabis sales with medically legal (wink wink go visit Dr. Feelgood with $125) shops sprung up everywhere in my town. Of course only a few of them were legal and after about EIGHTEEN MONTHS they noticed that there were more stores selling (by a factor of 4) then they licensed. Oh government is on the ball. Then only time I would smell dope in public was driving to work with the top down. Along with bacon, eggs, and breakfast burritos I would smell dope. Now every once in a while I'll catch a whiff in the grocery store as I pass someone. |

Early 80's I ran a tire service truck (truck,off road,ag).
It was super common to get into a truck and it be full of beer cans. I had one customer (rig mover) that kept a keg tapped in the break room 24/7 Salt water disposals had beer cans scattered everywhere from drivers drinking while they unloaded. And then there is the construction trades, LOL painters. Getting fucked up on the job is nothing new. |

The hilo drivers / workers, bosses at GM used to run into the yellow roof support poles.
The vapes they were using gave off no smell, so nicotine, wacky tobacky, or ???? Most of the employees were active on OTIS, I snapped a pic of the employee list and searched https://mdocweb.state.mi.us/OTIS2/otis2.aspx |

If a waiter doesn't provide full service there is no tip, never was even suggested until recently. I'm not tipping the corporation just for existing.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: I said it in passing because I don't think it has occurred to many that a "hold out" state such as Texas has a benevolence program for people who are sick and feel as if they need it for whatever reason it makes no difference to me. It does seem to have some real medicinal effects but has been overrated concerning some other medical issues as well. This is what I'm coming away with on the subject of medical weed. Anyway now I fear being canceled again. I have been canceled by the left frequently. I suppose I truly reside in no mans land. At least right now. C'est la Vie. I shall pray for you gladiator!

It will be the norm some day.
Several years ago my company started doing random tests. They gave everyone a two week notice. They ended up suspending so many people it shut the plant down. Now they have given up on random tests. You get tested for employment then nothing else unless you get hurt on the job. |

As far as I can tell, most any entry level position around here does not require a drug test as a part of the hiring process anymore even the national chains until a management position is attempting to be filled. These companies now tolerate high employees because they have no choice or shut down when operations basically cease to exist. I'm sure scheduling some of these brothers is a real pain in the ass too. |

At this point it is already the norm in a lot of places. Excluding people who are so remote that it is impossible to source marijuana in any form and those who have to take drug tests, I doubt that there is a single person in this country who wants to use it and can’t. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Early 80's I ran a tire service truck (truck,off road,ag). It was super common to get into a truck and it be full of beer cans. I had one customer (rig mover) that kept a keg tapped in the break room 24/7 Salt water disposals had beer cans scattered everywhere from drivers drinking while they unloaded. And then there is the construction trades, LOL painters. Getting fucked up on the job is nothing new. I had a paint sub in the 90s who drank a 12 pack each day. He told me, “doctors orders to keep the fumes flushed out of his system”. A roofer said, “he would get dizzy and fall off if he wasn’t a bit lit”. 12/12 pitches during a Carolina Summer, he may have had a point from a homeopathic perspective |

You just know your going to end over end too. You already know your going to scream like a little bitch on the way down. Lol |
