Living without weed

matabele

Very interesting replies, I have been studying this subject for some time now and I was expecting to hear that many people had given up and their lives were much better for it. My research has found a large number of smokers that are desperate to give up and have heard many heartbreaking tales.

...i've been without for 5 months because my job started testing

I don't understand why my office/job have the right to do a screening? I don't have the right to live high or whatever the heck i want? If i have an horrible record, i don't produce anything at my job, they have the right to kick me but otherwise i have the right to live however the heck i want, doesn't it?

Can someone explain me the law? Really i don't have any idea why that's possible.

I don't really know the law but you get a break on your health and commercial/ workers comp insurance if you require drug screening. This is the motivation of some employers. I think with fair warning they can do it.
Husband says he might consider drug screening but only to find out who isn't sharing hee hee
thats a joke sort of 8-)

It sounds like a wonderful place to work, full of magic and shiny happy people!

I don't smoke or drink but in defend the rights of those who choose to do it.

As the active ingredient in marijuana does have measurable negative physical effects, I say, from that point of view, living without weed is better.

Also, smoking weed does affect perception, thought process and coordination. Whilst I have no issues with people smoking, I believe that if you are in a position where you have responsibilities (for example at home with young kids or driving), you need to keep you wits about you and shouldn't be 'indulging'. Same with alcohol.

If you have a joint or two, fine. If you NEED a joint or two to relax, etc., you have an issue. Again, same thing goes for alcohol.

Call me old fashion but......

People can do what they want. I smoked (and others!), I drank, etc. I was never behind the wheel whilst 'under the influence' and have never been high or drunk whilst having a child under my responsibility. Just common sense.
