I think it's unfair that companies test for weed but not alcohol. Smoking weed heavily in your spare time can be a problem in a work environment, but so can heavy alcohol use. What is the point of making it legal when most companies test for it? Will this ever change?
I think it's unfair that companies test for weed but not alcohol...
My company tests for both
What country do you live in?
Same here. Blood tests to see how much alcohol you consume.
Weed, hell all drugs, are for low T fags.
If you can't deal with life and need drugs, you are the worst kind of pussy.
Australia
Edgy faggit
How is being able to control myself without the use of outside substances edgy? If anything it's quite the opposite, you know, dull and boring? Or is it because I called you a pussy for being a pussy?
Nah, it's because you're a grandstanding homo.
Rage on with your straightness cunt
So they can see how much you consume? If it's possible they should do this for weed and as long as your levels aren't sky-high you shouldn't be fired for smoking
Any company should be able to test your blood and urine for whatever they want. If you have some kind of chronic disease that can fuck them over in a year or two then they need to know
Sorry, I didn't know being a normal human who can go to work and not be stoned all the time was grandstanding.
No one is talking about getting stoned all the time. Quit making yourself looking like some fucking legend for not drinking or doing drugs lmao.
Do you consider alcohol and happiness drugs in that case most of America wouldn't be able to function at the rate that it is because that is what we need. So government doesnt necesarilly say anything about caffeine though more people are addicted to that than anything else. Think of side effect withdrawals before you say nothing wrong with caffeine.
"Accepted Science" hasn't determined "safe levels" of THC and Cannabanoids for motor-function and cognitive dependent activities. Alcohol has these levels determined and almost all individuals react to, process and excrete alcohol from their systems uniformly where weed does not.
Any kind of drug-type substance use that isnt stricrly medical with clear medical recommendation (anti depressants abuse for example) is ample reason to be get fired from the private sector. If youre working in a results based area you want as many responsible adults as you can find.
Canada has gotten worst not better, they encourage illegal grow OPs because they want to regulate it through the government. I'm not going to a liquor store to buy weed, I fucking hate drunks. I'll stay with a shady dealer then ever trusting the government, atleast my dealer doesn't spray weed with pesticides/fungicides. There's been deaths from legal weed, but illegal weed is perfectly safe.
Show me the death from legal weed
...
Lol, have you never drove stoned? It's exactly like being sober but any aches or joint pain seem to drift away. It's not like some drunk, your completely coherent when smoking weed.
Don't assume weed is bad until you test it for yourself
So you're saying weed levels wouldn't be able to be measured the same as alcohol levels because of the time it takes to excrete it?
I think surely they would be able to test your THC levels and see about how much you smoke daily
I'm not that user but weed does lower your reaction time a bit depending on how much you smoke
What if they just dab? I'm sure that'd give different levels than just normal bud.
This is true
Yes,but if you smoke daily it's like drinking a 24 and getting a mild buzz
no thanks
Anyways, the first ever death recorded from weed was a fungicide spray additive they used during vegetation, I've never heard of a respectable drug dealer spraying his crops with anything other than neem oil
Those niggers don't need to be using dangerous pesticides. And they try to lie/hide it.
Yeah if you take 1 dab a day vs 1 joint or something
I don't drink soda or coffee either. You fucks do know that the more you use this stuff, the less control you have over your own bodies? Why do you need a government to tell you not to do something?
And yes, Drugs include Alcohol. If you can't fucking deal with life without that shit, you are shit.
>If you can't fucking deal with life without that shit, you are shit.
What about doing it because its fun? You seem realy triggered and mad over what some does in their own free time.
Says the guy that has a perfect life, mommy and daddy gave him his first car/house/pussy, unlike you I've worked for everything I have, I deserve to treat myself to a painkiller that doesn't turn me mentally retarded or addicted. This guys a fag.
Not mad or triggered. If you chose to destroy yourself for fun, be my guest. But all I ever see is people using it because they can't deal with life, not fun. What, can't be a random and fun person without being drunk? That's because you are weak willed. Can't think cool shit unless you are stoned? Stop falling into the trap that you can't just make yourself feel however you want to without having to take drugs. You can literally WILL yourself into feeling however you want to, its fucking easy.
ITT moralfags thinking theyre better for not using versus drugfags thinking theyre better for using and "just being free bro, do you have some time for use to talk to you about the great eagle spirit?"
Both of you fuck off please
Withdrawal of caffeine is like a 1-2 day event. Also caffeine improves performance and concentration.
okay triggered soyboi
That's what science says man, I don't agree, hence the inverted commas
Triggered
but drugs are fun. not everyone uses them as a crutch.
also nice b8
Good thing cocaine leaves your system so fast.
Or you need a job that doesn't test.
That's why I drive this school bus
I don't drink soymilk either. That is one thing we can agree on user, Soymilk is for the worlds biggest fags.
...
Why is it either black or white? People are capable of moderate drug use
Surely they'll change something with the drug tests. It makes no sense to make it legal then exclude most of the population who have jobs
You must be 13.
Yes I've smoked a bunch of ways a bunch of times and eaten my fair share of s0ace cake.
I am 100% incapable of operating any form of motor vehicle or machinery after smoking for at least twelve hours. Weed fucks with my motor skills hard. I love getting ripped but I cannot build up ant form of tolerance to be machinery functional when active THC/Cannabanoids are in my system.
Many others are like this and many are not, the scale varies and is not like the almost homogenous results you see from alcohol. Science agrees
This is true, I've worked with many stoners and some just fuck everything up and some don't even seem impaired
companies should be able to do whatever the fuck they want... if they don't want stoners working for them they're perfectly within their rights to decide that
>it’s unfair they check for weed and not alcohol
>pretending it’s not easy to be high at work and obvious as fuck when drunk
Ok op
I wouldn't even call that a death from the weed itself, they were killed by a chemical fungicide added to it. It'd be like saying someone died from drinking water when someone added arsenic to it.
OP is mad cause he got fired for testing for dope after crashing a forklift into a wall.
Niggers and women too
most places do, the thing is alcohol gets out of your system a hell of a lot faster than THC.
they just want to make sure you aren't a waste of time, which most potheads are.
change to straight up any other vice you need to carry and and you'll be fine.
I'm not saying they shouldn't. Just saying if you don't test people for being alcoholics, why test for people being potheads? As long as you don't smoke a lot every day, smoking has virtually no negative long-term effects. Only heavy weed users get the long-term effects based on what I've read. Idk if heavy alcohol use has long-term mental effects, but I think it would
Lol I guess it would depend on the person and how high/drunk they were.
Lulz drinking alcohol doesn't make you a some kind of faggot
Arsenic makes the water sweeter, how else do you get kids to drink it?
It doesn’t depend on how high or drunk they are, they’re a liability. One is just easier to detect than the other
maybe i just fucking like weed
Because weed is only semi-legal some places
straight edge faggots are cancer.
even your ancestors drank on occasion,if you are too afraid of a little fun because of how others perceive you than you are a little bitch.
get a fucking grip and quit taking your sunday school values to people with an actual grip on their lives.
Go smoke a dandelion then if you like weeds so much.
>fucking
Uh oh, he's feeling withdrawals and getting cranky.
But they don't test for it because it's illegal, they test because it changes your brain
I have fun without the need to drink, it's you who can't do so. What, you can't act like you are drunk without drinking? You can't go ask women out and fuck them for fun? No wonder you are changing how you think with drugs, you are weak and pathetic without your precious outside help. Grow a pair someday faggot.
Where fags like you fail is when you bring up the women angle.
Dude, people smoke and drink because it's fucking FUN.
Life is shit for most of us and a nice doobie with a good friend out on the porch on a quiet Saturday night is what I consider FUN.
So fuck off with your cancer-inducing idiocy.
Full of shit then. Whatever.
You got the point.
You consider stupid stoner talk fun? To each his own I guess. How is being unable to remember what you talked about fun, what about hanging out requires being stoned? Nothing.
Do you think if you smoke pot you black out or somethin?
>you can't act like your drunk without drinking?
no, because i'm not a fucking child.
>you cant ask women out and fuck them
I can and do, and i fucking doubt your wet blanket ass can talk game.
I can talk about drugs because I have experiance with them, you talking shit is the same thing as someone who has never held a gun in their hands advocating for safer guns, it doesn't make you more intelligent, it makes you a un-informed tard spouting on about shit he has no knowledge of.
life is for the living, and I intend to make the most out of my days by any fucking means, I'm not a scared straight little faggot who can't stray from the words of mommy and daddy to see the value in recreational use in mind altering substances.
not everyone is an addict, and those who cannot function without meds are weak. but if you honestly thing them big bad drugs turn you into a bad apple that skips school and runs with the bad crowd like some 50's after school special then you are sheltered beyond any and all belief and shouldn't be preaching about how others live their lives because you choose not to live your own.
break the programming or kill yourself.
Well this thread derailed xD
Bahahahahahaha you're a deadset retard
Okay he's my two pennies worth. I am an employer who tests for weed under the pretext of health and safety. The real reason I do it is because stoners are workshy lazy cunts.
hanging out with straight edge people is the most boring fucking thing on the planet.
it's like visiting a retirement home but without the obligation and history with that person.
I'd rather just work more than listen to inane shit some asshole has to say about their bring ass life.
What you say is so silly. People don't take you seriously man.
Life isn't a Seth Rogen comedy man, I fucking wish I was a "zombie" when I smoke.
I fuckin wish, I really miss those days.
My point is, life isn't a movie man.
That's not even close to reality.
>what about hanging out requires being stoned? Nothing.
What about ANYTHING requires ANYTHING else? Fuck off with your shit arguments.
If you're gonna spew shit, at least try to not look like a complete idiot.
Yeah it did, but OP got the answer many times but ferused to accept reality so fuck it
you're supposed to roll it up and smoke it you autist, not fuck it. Im not even sure how you would do that
hail our corporate overlords
Stoners are lazy, but I think it's unfair to lump every person who smokes weed in as a stoner. Some people just prefer to smoke weed over drinking alcohol. They key is how much a person does and that's what drug tests should look for
speaking from an ex-pot abuser perspective who has multiple friends who had similar experiences.
Pot is definitely under-reported for its negatives. That will fuck you up long term, when i started smoking i couldnt see why people were anti-weed and felt they were all just stiffs who were judgmental.
Its gonna destroy your short term memory, make socializing spacey from others perspectives and the whole list of mental illness is a risk.
And back to your main point. Just because alcohol is bad but not tested for doesn't mean that weed shouldn't be tested for. They both should, don't make a weak arguement that just makes you feel better about a vice. Its still a vice.
I'm the OP, lol. I don't remember refusing anything. Can you show me the answers you're talking about so I know what you mean?
savage
Dog, you fell for some obvious bait
???? Alchohol doesn't stay in my body like weed though. I though they don't test that cause they literally can't catch you with alchohol in your blood like they can with the?
theres a solid reason why most adults become stoners in college then by the end of the mid twenties to late twenties they quit it and consider anyone still smoking it a lazy piece of shit.
Your probably just in that first age group.
And chicks hate stoners if they're not stoners once you hit the mid late twenties.
I'm all for testing people that are in high-risk positions. I put myself through school as a mechanic and the several of the stoners I worked around did really stupid shit, much more than the guys that didn't seem high. One guy came back from lunch high and lowered a car onto an oil drain tank, which then slid off the lift and into a car in another bay.
You stoners can whine all you want, but I don't want to work with you.
Thc* not the*. Fucking auto correct I'm trying to shi
Fuck chicks.
I wasn't trying to argue so I feel better about my vice. I just think drug tests aren't fair.
Weed does have negative long-term effects but that's only with heavy users. If you smoke less than 1g a day for a long time I think you will have very little or no negative effects. I just think companies shouldn't consider every single person who smokes weed as a heavy user and use drug tests to see how much the person smokes daily
Wait, is it a government monopoly in Canada? Or is there still private industry, but you can only buy in shops with a liquor license or w/e?
Washington is doing things way worse on paper than Colorado so far, and it's honestly erased my suspicions even still.
That's fair. Just don't lump every single person who smokes weed in as a stoner. Some people can use it responsibly and moderately
Weeb teen confirmed. The raw amount of faggotry in replying to his shitty bait is amazing.
my company tests for both as well. i work as a civil servant in NY with heavy machinery and gas powered equipment that also requires very heavy lifting in a dangerous environment. pays very well, but i cant drink more than a few beers or a couple of mixed drinks the night before work for obvious reasons. weed is also unacceptable.
i was actually wondering if small amounts of CBD oil sows up up on drug tests. maybe around 50mg ingested every week or so. Its the closest thing i can get to weed that doesn't fuck with you mentally.
????CBD Don t get you high tho. It's for pain
They do not test for THC, they test for the metabolites of it
hence what THC turns into after it is processed
so they're basically testing you to see if you got high in the last month, not wheth
er you are impaired on the job or not
How often do you get tested?
Just my opinion, but if you're allowed a few beers, you should be allowed a few tokes of weed too. The problem is there's no measurement for how much weed in your system becomes a problem
Stupid people shouldn't smoke weed. Every dumb nigger I know that smokes becomes a literal zombie after they do. I had this one stupid nigger come in high one day he couldn't even listen or do the simplest of tasks. Smart kids can handle their weed and it barely affects them. I worked with another older guy and I would never have known he was a huge stoner until he told me.
Weed does make you dumber, so if you're lacking a brain to begin with you probably shouldn't try it. Especially blacks, they have no business smoking weed, they're dumb enough as it is.
True. Do you think it would be possible to tell roughly how much a person smokes daily with that test?
>bait!
no, faggot come at me with a solid fucking argument or fuck off.
your school boy attitude is repulsive to anyone over the age of 10, you can talk shit all day but it doesn't make your ignorant shitflinging any less ridiculous.
Depends on the person's fat content and their current state of fat-burning. The metabolites store in fat cells
But most tests max out at 1000/ng per ml, which you can accumulate by smoking just an eighth (3.5 grams)a week, which honestly isn't a lot
well, weed is still illegal in ny. i'm sure once it becomes legalized (hopefully) they may loosen up the noose a bit.
yeah, i know. the job is pretty killer on your body sometimes, so it would be great if i could partake in something to numb it a bit or take the edge off. i'm not a fan of pain meds unless its absolutely needed. that shits the worst to get hooked on.
