Will UPS Follow? Amazon Will Stop Testing Job Seekers For Marijuana And Now Backs Legalizing Weed

[MECH-lift]

It's been 9:30+ all week they just convince people in seniority order to show up earlier for extra work when needed.

I'm pretty sure it messes with the preload dispatch too. Just an absolutely chaotic month.

Back when we first implemented smart scan they only made it work with an army of HR and suits coming building-to-building. Bigger not better means they are trying the same thing with no lube.

After 9:30 lol , that is absolutely unacceptable

So will lawyers for UPS say "ok, allow your drivers to use a drug with proven cognitive impairment qualities". What's a few lawsuits?

You mean like they already do with alcohol?

UPS will use any excuse to cut costs. Drug testing is a cost.

Or do something that brings attention to you like being so friend’d up you can’t stand up or speak coherently.

I've never in my life heard of or seen someone who was " so friend'd upthey can't stand up or speak coherently" from weed. I haven't smoked for about 10 years cuz im old but if you can score some like that.... hook a brother up

From what I'm told from experts such as @Weed Einstein , today's merchandise (naturally for purely medical purposes only) is extremely potent, a few hasty applications render the user into an brain altering, pharmaceutical grade stupor.

That’s good.
The context of my comment was about someone getting on @management’s list”, and my comment about bringing attention to yourself.
Maybe you didn’t read enough.

Unfortunately, completely legalizing marijuana everywhere is going to create a whole generation of young 'uns who lay on their mommys' couches all day.

I know several RPCD’s personally who prove your theory wrong
Usually people that say stuff like this are people who have very little to zero experience with the substance.
Or know a total screw up who happened to smoke pot and thus constant false equivalence

UPS doesn't test job seekers for Marijuana already and who cares if UPS supports legalizing marijuana.

This is Amazon trying to look more attractive as they get thrashed in the media.

I was never once drug tested in my five years. Helper to RPCD it didn’t happen.

Now I’m on the railroad and hair follicle tested across 12 panels!

Not yet. Waiting for my next crop.

one of the problems with states legalizing is that it gives employees the false impression that its ok when its still illegal on a federal level. that affects DOT and some airline employees.

honestly i smoking is no different then drinking and driving. Neither should be allowed when operating a vehicle.

unless something has changed the problem with testing for weed is you cant tell if the positive result is from last nights bong bash or todays drive to work tote.

"Safety Sensitive" is the term; here is a summary of the Regs!
BTW, it is expensive to comply with this program, so only the absolutely "required" people are tested. Walking/driving around in that hub, yard, ramp can easily hurt you/others...
