True, but you can be fired for going to work with alcohol in your system. That cannot be done with pot, since it stays so much longer. Getting canned cuz you smoked a legal joint a week ago will not fly.

I know businesses that do random tests for nicotine,
and if they find it in your system, you are fired on the spot.

Actually, employers are still drug testing, and the presence of marijuana will cause you to “fail” the test. So, yes, currently if you come to work intoxicated on marijuana, you can be fired or not given a job for testing positive for it.
