    exactly. I wonder how all of this will play out with current testing methods. I see plenty of wrongful termination lawsuits in the offing. Damn trial attorneys will be lining up for this.

    That's absolutely the worst part about weed. It's relatively harmless compared to other drugs, yet it hibernates in your system for far longer than any other intoxicant. Amphetamines and the like get out in just a few days. Such bullsh!t.

    Hair test go back months. No drug gets out fast. Nowhere to hide. They got you by the hair of the head. The shampoo doesn't work. Several lost their job last test and all of them washed their hair with garanteed to pass shampoo.

    Yet you are dumb enough to keep sucking it in? Comma sense (Rev. Jackson phonetics) tells you that can't be good.

    If they use the hair test, they can tell you the day you stopped.

    So if I burn one while BBQ'ing the day before I go to work but then get tested the next day I'm good? I don't think so Tim.

    Hey!! I know. Don't do one at all. Get tested? Who cares? Or is getting dumbed down by a little grass more important than gainful employment? Geez people. Grow up.:dis:

    Since it is illegal, I agree with you. However, I am talking about if/when it gets legalized. Had it been legal for the last 20 years, no telling how much money I could have saved on booze. For me, a joint used to last at least a long time. I would take one hit, maybe 2. I just wanted to get the effect of 4 or 5 beers w/o drinking them.

    I expect employers won't want potheads working on their equipment or serving their customers. I know I wouldn't.

    I hear ya. I think there is a difference in the stereotypical pothead and the person that takes a hit or two on Friday evening to wind down. I'm about to go have a few glasses of wine, the effect will be the same.
