do they fire people for smoking pot after hours?

[Military family member]

I worked for a company with clean rooms, and we were restricted in terms of deordorants, hairsprays, perfumes, etc.

I just quit cold turkey eight weeks ago, after smoking 2 to 3 packs per day. I've managed to stay away, without patches, gums, pills, or anything else. I just looked at my son whenever I wanted a cigarette. I just had to decide which meant more to me.

Only if the people agree to not do it as part of their employment contract.

Unrelated to this article, but YES.

In the construction industry 'most' field personnel (on the job-site) are required to take drug tests. And the trade unions can do squat if someone if fired for failing the test.
