But that was my entire point. Many view it as that. The only way to overcome that stigma is to normalize its use a legitimate and beneficial substance , which it is. Sorry, I didn't mean to come off as a maniac, but if I was a maniac, I bet pot would calm me done.I happen to think marijuana is better than many opiate narcotic pain pills however a.) there are non narcotic, non addicting options that MIgHt be available to the poster and b.) marijuana carries a stigma, whether we like it or not, maybe one day that will change but just for today, many still view marihuana as a drug that will prevent a person from employment

For the skiing.......of course.lol I hear ya, and I agree pot stigma is bad and should be changed , as soon as I retire I'm going to colorado

I would! When I used to smoke, it helped with my back pain and getting to sleep through the night! Thankfully PT and exercise has lowered the overall pain so I can manage without.I have rheumatiod arthritis and have been in package for 27 yrs. I take Osteo Biflex and deal with the pain. I have just one question. Would you smoke if it didnt make you high?
You realize, of course, that marijuana is legal, even for recreational use, in some states.
If he lives in one of these states, it is not an illegal drug.
And further, you realize, of course, that alcohol was illegal at one time.
Yeah and I think the point is whether you think pot is bad or good or should be legal and not shunned is not gonna change the fact that ya most likely won't be able to get a job if you smoke pot for ANY reason, legitimate or illegitimate, it's just the way it is, such is life, the way it is at this current juncture in history..... And getting back to original post, chances are You will have a Pre employment drug test, most companies whether your driving or not, do conduct Pre employment drug screens... The political pot debate has been going on for decades now and even though some states whatever, legalized it or whatever they did , I know I can't smoke weed, the pay at ups more than compensates for me not tokin upYou realize of course that federal law trumps state law.
Yes I know alcohol once was illegal. I know the analogy is extreme but the point still stands. It's against the law. Just because you feel it's ok doesn't mean you can do it or should.
Oh I see now.soooo, where did the original "null" come from???
the only change when quoting you, was putting "photog is rife with ignorance"
Do you live in a medical marijuana state?
Yes i do.
They're not illegal.Seriously just stop doing illegal drugs
They're not illegal.
They're not illegal.
Depends on who ya ask.
Oh I see now.
You are ignorant on where to respond to a post.
You are suppose to put your response after the last "QUOTE]" ... not within it. LMAO
Lame!I didn't respond to your post, I changed the most important word in your sentence....
and to think you're a staff member... smh
I agree. I was just responding to where someone said stop doing illegal drugs,when in fact they were not illegal in the OP's state.The state you live in may not consider pot illegal but I'm pretty sure the union contract with UPS does.
Yes I do. But do you see the feds doing anything about it? They are sitting back and allowing states to decide on their own. The feds tried to take on 1 state, but as more legalize it, they are backing down.You realize of course that federal law trumps state law.
