THC metabolites linger. THC itself is gone in a matter of hours. It is the metaboilites that a drug test finds.

As for firing a quadriplegic who uses it off hours to control seizures, that’s just sick.

Watch your filthy language. I have a picture of my kids next to the computer.

Perhaps you don't agree with the morality of it but a private employer, constitutionally speaking, should be able to fire an employee for any reason he sees fit. This is a win for private property rights. It would be nice to see the courts strike down other unconstitutional "anti-discrimination" laws. If you don't like the way this man was treated, and I don't, the solution is to not use Dish's services and tell them why.

In today’s litigious business atmosphere one critical defense against discrimination lawsuits is consistency. If one drug user is fired the all drug users should be fired. You can blame the federal employment police for that.
