Can’t blame the guy at all.

I wouldn’t want workers showing up drunk either.

I’m not sure why anyone would think that being stoned on the job would not affect their performance in a very negative way.

If you are going to get high, do it on your own time.

Yep. And if you are going to dink the secretary, take it to another company. In-house romance is a problem, too.

No problem with these guys losing their job. That's the thing to love about the market.

You obviously have not seen those studies that show mj smokers are safer drivers.

Yes, while the "intoxication" effects may only last a few hours, the cognitive impairment of regular use lasts for days. Essentially your IQ drops considerably for several days afterward. It's not that he's "high" now...it's the lingering effect of reduced capacity that is at issue. There then becomes the attentiveness and motivational issues too, with regular consumption.

Smoking pot is not the same as having a drink. I can have a drink or two and not get drunk. You don't take a couple of tokes off a joint like it's a cigarette, you hold it down...the purpose IS to get high.
