Some judge in Colorado decided that pot smoking isn't a protected legal activity and pot smokers can be fired for testing positive for THC even though smoking pot is legal there. I guess the will of the people means nothing to theses asshole judges.
Colorado judge decides pot heads can still be fired for smoking pot.

When they passed the medical marijauna bill in Cali the defense contractor my brother works for told all their employees that since It was still illegal federal wise they wouldn't accept that as an excuse for failing a drug test. I suspect they'll do the same in Washington and Colorado.Beware of DogComment

My company recognizes the license in MMJ states (they're way progressive). Dunno how that'd work if I relocated to a less-friendly state, but it's not like they randomly test...Originally posted by conmee

The drug testing companies are gonna put every effort into convincing the general public that they can only detect use not when you used because it would limit the amount of people being tested for THC if they decide employers must take legal medicinal use as an excuse for having THC in your system. I've always thought random drug testing was an invasion of privacy and against laws against self incrimination.Beware of DogComment

I didn't intend to thank cadaver but what the hell. The drug problem becomes an issue when considering industrial accidents at the hands of a stoned maintenance worker or a lethargic worker who was stoned the night before. Imagine a boiler explosion because the worker was stoned. Careless, inattentive work activity that could result in death because somebody was stoned is much less likely to be covered by the operators insurance. I work in the geothermal industry, which is a high risk, dangerous job. I wouldn't want my associate to be stoned because he has back pains. Maybe drugs can be tolerated in a place like Guitar Center. But there is a thin red line.Comment

First off, no one is "lethargic" the day AFTER smoking weed. Secondly, wtf does GC's policy or lack thereof have to do with anything? Thirdly, if you're "careless and inattentive" stoned then you're smoking the wrong shit.

Back in my much younger days, I worked in a local sandwich shop. Pretty much everybody got high there, including the boss, and yes, by that I mean we were baked on the job. His only rules were
1) Don't get high if you're working by yourself.
2) Don't get high if you're running the meat slicer.
Can't remember if he had an official rule to not get high if you were doing deliveries that day, but I know I personally didn't. Seems like reasonable rules to me.
Overall, if it impacts your ability to do your job, then it should be an issue. Other than that, it's really none of anybody's fucking business what you do on your own time.Eat Us And Smile

That is crazy. If it's legal you shouldn't be fired if they find it in your blood.
Of course you shouldn't be high at work (except for you Ford ). Alcohol is legal but you can't be drunk at work. But if I drank the night before work it would show in my blood.
You shouldn't lose your job if you smoke on your days off.The heart is on the left. The blood is red.Comment

That's the flaw in the policy, but it's almost understandable when you have the uniformed running around asserting people are "lethargic" a day after like it's fact - and it's not. No other substance has ever had such an involved disinformation effort. But that was all started so some rich fuck's wood-pulp paper mill empire wouldn't have better, cheaper competition in the marketplace.Originally posted by conmee

Ironic thing about the pulp industry is that an acre of hemp would ultimately produce infinitely more product than an acre of timber, because hemp grows back a hell of a lot faster than trees do.Eat Us And Smile

Sounds more like you've watched Reefer Madness a few too many times.

Companies should have the right to deny employment to a pot smoker. Last I checked, race and gender are protected characteristics, not drug use.
You cannot deny there are lingering effects the morning after smoking pot. I call BS.Comment

Not attacking guitar center in particular. The point is work place hazards at GC or a realtors office are much different than an industrial facility. Right?
