4473 and work.

I’d love to partake. Did it once 25 years ago. It was kind of fun but I was so scared of being caught that it took away from it.

One of my old co-workers smoked incessantly throughout the workday.  You'd think he'd be a nice guy, but he wasn't.  We were pretty sure he was just paranoid all the time, which led to him being an overly aggressive @$$hole that constantly started drama over nothing or benign misunderstandings.  Can some people function on it?  Sure.  But I'm not sure legalizing it to the point employers would allow you to be high while you are at work is a good idea.

4473 is lamest excuse I've ever heard, especially when there are plenty of legitimate reasons to not use cannabis.

I'm in the 'smoking is stupid' camp.  Don't  particulary care what your smoking.  Knew a few potheads in college, they all smoked cigs too - something about feeling they needed the smoke in their lungs.

I don't believe in recreational drug use either.  Society has enough problems without people being drugged.

Used to work in aerospace industry.  No place for people who aren't all there.

It's illegal in my state to possess da smokem. My wife is very against anything that makes me less of a "man-leader" including drunkenness. My wife has always spoiled my fun and insanity. She says it makes me stupid and less of a "man-God" to look up [to]. It also makes me very horny and aroused for long periods of time and she loozzes control of me. It makes me not want to address her assigned work load around the house. It makes me laugh at stupid shit(her words). Horrible stuff.

I’ve seen alcohol wreck more lives than weed. But, it’s still illegal and workplace randoms do occur.

All the above comments are pretty funny about only losers and hippie/ commies smoke weed. I know a few very successful people that partake once in awhile and done seem to be suffering much. But just like anything too much of a good thing can bite you.

cannabis helps with chronic pain.

ETA. there is a massive grow operation about 20 feet away from me in the same building as the business I'm employed with. along with 2 others on the same block. 500 yrds away are 2 dispensaries. My ex GF manages one of the weed shops and would fly alaska airlines up north to purchase product. she said returning home with a carry on full of weed and edibles was a very interesting experience, especially going through TSA.

I didn't say that. Do what you want. But if their doobie usage impairs their ability to drive, they should be treated just like any other DUI.

And if I'm hiring people (and I do) and have to choose between two roughly equal candidates, a pot user and a non-pot user, there is zero chance I'm hiring the pothead. Ever.

That's right. I don't drink. And the only med I take is Claritin, not prescribed by a doctor.

I'm not saying you guys can't partake in your pot, sorry, medical cannabis. Or alcohol. Or whatever. I think all medications ought to be over the counter. Well, except antibiotics. Take the doctor out of it.
