Cheap blow? I don't think so.

After all, you're the one who told us that at 14.48 on a Tuesday afternoon you were getting so high we shouldn't expect any sense from you until-- you didn't seem too sure when.

Your later posts suggest you were right.

Re: It's not a problem or is it?
 

If they could accurately pinpoint at what time the joints where smoked then yeah I am all for the tests- Cannabis as we know there is no hangover like you get with alcohol. But it stays detectable in your system(though its having zero effect on anything you do at work, the effects simply do not last that long) and It isn't fair to penalise staff because they had a few joints Sunday night. That has absolutely nothing to do with anyone. But it is fair to do so if they are smoking on the way to work, on breaks and eating space-cakes for lunch, and if this is detected then they should be facing disciplinary action for drinking/taking drugs at work.

The problem with this BS is there is a too much of a fine line between under the influence and "in the system" and nobody really cares for drugs subjects on here. But hey. You know this. Right?

Some geneticists believe we're all at least 50th cousins to everyone else on this planet (like one big family)....some stats if your interested (or not) The Straight Dope: 2, 4, 8, 16 ... how can you always have MORE ancestors as you go back in time?

Re: It's not a problem or is it?
 

Are you suggesting you could be my 50th cousin?

You've depressed me for the rest of the day!

Count your fingers and toes if you have more than the normal amount, then yes, inbreeding could mean you are very closely related.

You may of gathered I'm quite partial to a herbal ciggie now and again, yes I know, It's high time i recognised folk other than myself in my thought process and stopped for a moment to consider the ramifications my drug use may have on other folk....but... 'work is the curse of the smoking classes'.
No doubt there have been times when I'd of probably failed a drug test due to some THC in my system but I'm pretty responsible with my 'habit' and I don't turn up for work of my box.
Say I did go into work with red eyes, smelling of stale ale,and all hungover and 'it was effecting my work performance', I'd expect disciplinary action to be taken 'after' a test.

I can see these tests sending folk back into unemployment leaving them basically unemployable due to their new 'drug user' title. What constitutes a unacceptable level of drugs, Is the rate the same for drink driving as it is for say a office job?

I want a job testing all those directors/managers 5minutes after they come back from their (liquid) lunches or maybe testing employees for stress I've lost count of the weekends I have lost due to the crippling effects of working.

And you confessed to the above for what reason?
It doesn't make you big or clever, whatever artificial stimulant you are using, please keep such information to yourself and not on site, it only shows you up.
