Dammit, I had a weak moment tonight and had a smoke

[WindRavenX]

I have to quit because I'll probably have a piss test in early/mid June, and I had a smoke with one of my friends tonight. Just a momentary lapse and now I feel bad for it x(

1. Me, too.

:smoke:

[WindRavenX]

3. why do they have to make us give it up?

Seriously, have you had to quit temporarily before? I didn't notice not smoking for a week, but I just...forgot to say 'pass' at my friends. :banghead:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

5. Nope, none of my jobs required a test,

:D

[WindRavenX]

7. You: New York Me: Utah

You: civilized society
Me: Mormon theocracy

HMMM I wonder why none of your jobs require a test :P

[Starbucks Anarchist]

8. Well, I lived in California, too.

:P

Hell, my current boss even admitted he did it before. :D

[WindRavenX]

10. hahaha

See, that's awesome. Stoners should work together.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

14. Yep!

One thing I've noticed about NYC -- you can do anything you want on your own time as long as you take care of shit when you're supposed to.

:toast:

2. Cigs or pot?

[WindRavenX]

4. the latter

If they tested me for cigs, I'd just not even apply to the place on principle. My time is MY time, and as long as I don't show up hung-over/high/under the influence of anything, then they have no right to pry into my private life.

Same thing with the fucking credit check they're doing nowadays before they'll hire you. fucking facists.

6. They should legalize the shit.

Stupid law.

[WindRavenX]

9. seriously

It bloooowsss my mind it's illegal.

My GPA has gone up a full .6 points because of it.

And it's good for people with cancer and glaucoma dammit.

[graywarrior]

12. I swear most arrests would be eliminated if it were legalized.

Total was of time and money.

11. WRX, don't sweat it. June is a long way away.

[WindRavenX]

13. It makes me feel bad that I lapsed though

Ya know?

[Redstone]

15. No guilt. Do you understand me? I'm a lot older than you, and I've been through ALL of it,

and I can tell you from experience that the most destructive emotion you can possibly have is guilt.

Don't go there: "I wasn't good enough to have done better" is the first emotion down a slippery slope that you do not want to slide down.

That's a bit of a mangled sentence, but re-read it until you understand it. You'll be glad you did.

16. It only takes a month for THC to clear out of your system normally...

Unless you've been toking sizable amounts for years.

I've never tried it but it's Tommy Chong's company. I think I'm going to try masking shit so I can actually get a real summer job.

Edit: There's nothing they hate more than a well-educated stoner.

17. What Kind of Nazi State are we Living in When a Friggin Cig...

...can get you fired?!

I thought we were in the land of the free.

I'm totally disgusted by your account of experiences -- tell me more.

[ellisonz]

18. It's the dope (God's dope), not the cigs.

Although, there are a couple of companies (maybe just one, can't remember the name) that have demanded their employees stop smoking cigs or be fired (and they'll test).

[liberal renegade]

19. that would be

Uncle Pete's Rabbit Ranch.....

[WindRavenX]

20. what's also disgusting is that a lot of jobs are now checking your credit

WTF is this shit-- facist fucks! I'll do what I want on my free time--when I'm on company time, I'm a good lil' citizen, but when I go home, if I want a glass of wine, fatty food, or a cig or joint, dammit, it's my free time!
