That's a lot of "ruling out" over a personal agenda not tied to corporate value.
What if it is a corporate value though - healthier employees.
But it's a necessary medicine for a lot of people. One of the reasons to ALLOW it is for healthier employees! Not that any drug automatically makes people healthier or unhealthier, but you are basically saying that you'd happily make innocent people unhealthy and guilty ones more healthy and/or that you want to filter out people who need medication which is just evil.
Imagine if you fired anyone who needed heart burn medication or medication for heart attacks to "eliminate the unhealthy"!!!
Well, if we limit the discussion purely to weed, I'll agree with you. But if we include cigarettes, yeah - no.
Sure, I'd STILL not be willing to limit in that way but it is SO much better to not hire cigarette smokers than weed smokers. If you were to choose one of the two, cigarettes make you a health liability, tend to take tons of breaks at work, smell bad, bother other workers, etc. But I'd still never drug test for tobacco INSTEAD of determining someone's value at work. Firing someone for dipping or whatever would be considered insane... and yet it is so much better than hiring based on someone not smoking weed.
Yep I agree with all those things.
I'm on your side Scott - I don' t think we should drug test expect for things you previously stated (doctors, heavy equipment operators). Now that said, if a company is going to "have you drive something while on the clock" it should be fine to require they truthfully answer - do you smoke weed/do drugs, if so, you can't be behind a wheel while on the clock for me, period. But sitting behind a desk - fine.
This thread is full of persoonal bias from a lifetime of brainwashing and propaganda.
Why would someone who is hungover from a night of binge drinking be allowed to operate machinery and not someone who smoked a joint the night before? Why? Because you have been trained your entire life to think drugs are bad... that is the only reason you would say this.As for people who smoke not being hireable, well I don't know where yall live, but in Washington, many highly successful people smoke. Many successful people drink. Why should there be some sort of discrimination between types of inebriation off the clock?
The data from Colorado for the past couple years backs this up: http://reason.com/archives/2016/04/25/early-lessons-from-marijuana-legalizatio
This is the reason I'm leaving too Nic. Best of luck to you sir.

RE: Automatic - car trackerposted in Water Closet
Are you looking to use this to track your kids or something? The device is fully visible in the OBD2 slot or nearly any vehicle. A thief with any sort of brains is gonna pull that right out.

Really excited to be on vacation in a few hours! Bought myself a half ton pickup and I'm going to put my boat on the roof and head up to my parents. Enjoy some thanksgiving dinner with them, then out to the middle of nowhere to camp and fish and hike.
Pssh silly Canadians with their October thanksgiving.
Yeah, silly new world with their thanksgiving...
Convenient excuse to eat turkey - highly recommend.
Had that once, wasn't that great IMHO. But I'll give it another try.
Deep fried turkey is the way to go. We used to do several every US thanksgiving, much cooler then our northern neighbors. They have an excellent crispy skin while still being incredibly moist on the inside.
Do you guys try to convince me which turkey is better? Let's find out, you guy's can prepare some turkey when we visit 'merica some day
