masticatingman 08/29/20 2:43:05 PM #19:	To be fair, drinking can get you fired too. Where I'm at, you get put on a breathalyzer too for a random (drug test). Of course, the difference is that it's pretty hard to get fired over a breathalyzer, even if you have to get a 0.0 reading. You can drink a 6 pack the night before, night ending at 10-11 pm, and pass a breathalyzer in the morning around 8 am. --- Fervent appearing <cite>masticatingman posted [p:943971277] in Why does a...

Gamerguymass 08/29/20 2:44:12 PM #20:	Beyond01 posted... Its legal in California now but employers still fire people over it. No its not. Weed is against federal law making it illegal everywhere in the United States of America. The federal government have just chosen not to enforce the law since, while still a drug, it isn't as bad as stuff like heroin. If they wanted to shut down all the "legal" pot shops in America they could do that in a day and there would be absolutely nothing the states could do about it. Its also ridiculous that people are so ignorant about pot. Aside from the study that just came out that says that yes pot IS addictive, do people not understand basic biology? There is no such thing as healthy smoke when it comes to the human lungs. ALL smoke is bad smoke. Many doctors even say smoking pot is worse for you then cigarettes because pot smokers have a habit of holding the smoke in longer, thus damaging your lungs even more. --- Now Playing: "The Hunt for the Two Missing Nintendo 64 Games" An expansion came out, but I'm still a third of the way through! <cite>Gamerguymass posted [p:943971325] in Why does a...
