I was talking about the “overdose” part of it. Those who go to work, they’re not overdosing. The “overdose” in this stuff is that you’re not going to work... LOL... (and believe me, there are people like that...)...
As far as those people who go to work, I would say as long as they are tested and don’t show up anything in the tests while they are at work, that’s up to them. But, if they “test” and it shows up, then fire them...
It takes about 7-10 days for a pot smoker to test clean after smoking ONE joint.
We fire anyone who fails a drug test at our place.
Some insurance companies won’t give life insurance if you test positive.
More and more companies are using drug tests, especially trucking companies.
I agree that just like with alcohol, there are those who should entirely stay away from the substance due to its effect on them. The problem I see with the current laws is that marijuana shows up on screening for a month or more after use. There is no way that someone is still being altered by a substance that was ingested days, or weeks ago. Many who would otherwise be available for employment are rendered ineligible. Agreed, a change in habits removes this boundary but reality is what it is.
