Baby boomers are over 40, a protected class, you can’t not hire them for that, its discrimination, and age discrimination will cost a business plenty.
I beg to differ Limey. Cut off for baby boomerdom is 1964. I was born in 1965.
So if they busted your 22 year old daughter for pot, it's OK with you if some 290 pound hogjawed AH sits her in a room and threatens her 2 years in the joint, or go out and make dope and gun buys for us, while unarmed and untrained...
This is OK with you?
Re-read my last post to you. No sense retyping something if you're not going to address it.
If you call me a Limey based on my screen name, then you must be a flatulent canine.
Nothing personal. One of my best friends name is Nigel...;-)
I said doing drugs (even marijuana) has negative consequences. If she had not been busted in possession of marijuana a second time, would she still be alive? I guess, in her case at least, that mj was inherently gangerous.
She died in the execution of a sting she was coerced into.
...to avoid four years in prison.
I would bet that Ms Hoffman did not have to deal with people that used guns in her dealings of little bags of pot. If the police knowingly sent her in to buy guns, they should be prosecuted for manslaughter, as Ms Hoffman was a drug dealer not a gun dealer.
For the record, not a Brit.
Redcoats means something else to me, its a mascot name.
Sounds to me like you're not very good at hiring.
Why stop at only the drugs you like? Opium is made by God too, so you say that everything that’s natural is good. Clearly that should be legalized on the same grounds right?
Or are you a hypocrite?
All 50 of them?
BS.
“Sounds to me like you’re not very good at hiring.”
In construction uou don’t intervieww the grunts before hiring.
“How did you catch them? On the job?”
yes.
Let me get this straight, so in your business, over a period of time, you walked up and found over 50 people smoking pot?
Is that right?
So sorry. The screen name and use of the term “at university” in a previous post kind of clued me in. Where are you from?
Singapore pretty much does that, and has very little drug problems. I’d go on their model. The pothead hippies on here are ridiculous with their ‘it doesn’t affect anyone negatively’ nonsense.
It’s not hard when you are talking about 5-600 people a year.
Opium must be processed.
Pot grows wild.
BTW, Opium is used for pharmaceuticals, Morphine helps millions.
