Keyword being "worked".

Yeah, that idiot didn't expect any of the random drug-screening that goes on . . .

If I was an employer having to lay off a bunch of people thanks to 0bamacare, I would do a random drug test then fire all the Dummies. They would not only be jobless but they won't get UE and won't be able to find another job anytime soon.

A random drug test and a sweep through the parking lot to look for bumper stickers.

I'm not an expert but hair can show the drugs in your body. That is why many of kids have that shaven or stubble look on their heads.

Main reason that pot smokers will not be a mainstream work force is the trial lawyers association.

12yrs at Northrop Grumman with a TS clearance the regular drug tests consisted of not only hair but a needle aspiration of fat cells from your buttocks.  They did not screw around if a test showed positive, you lost your clearance immediately.

That's standard across the board. All incidents like that have to be reported to the CCF by the FSO.

If I stop the cannabis medication it takes about a day for the spasms in my arm and back to start, and by day two the muscle starts to burn. My arm will turn numb in about a week and it will feel just like I smacked my funny bone perpetually.

Right. And if DUmmy Taverner misses a heroin fix for very long, he'll get desperately sick and could even die.

So why should employers be allowed to discriminate against heroin addicts like Taverner?

I kid you not, now that "medical" MJ is legal in Massachusetts it can be prescribed for both treatment of diarrhea and constipation. WTF.

Why am I reminded if this:

I've Been Missing for 6 months third try at Cure
   
This was my last chance, I had tried twice before.

Liver biopsy in 91 was Stage two, tried but was too busy trying to save my home from foreclosure to incapacitate myself like that

Second try, in 2006 ended with no sleep, food,or drink and dry heaving for 9 days before I hit the Emergency room.

Another Liver Biopsy last summer. Doctor gave me 6-8 years to live without completing treatment

Stage Four they start digging a hole to put you i, as that is all they can do for you.

Third attempt, I told my doctor's I wanted to use pot, even though I don't live in a Med Pot state, they looked the other way.

I MADE IT! I MADE IT! I MADE IT!

never had anything worse than semi-constant mild to sometimes moderate nausea. Big difference from last time.

Baseline (before therapy) viral count was over 12 million of those little virus' in every milliliter of my blood.

2 weeks after starting treatment, viral load blood test came back " NO VIRUS FOUND and every 2 week blood test came back thew same way.
so my treatment has a strong remission so far

5 months from now, if it still comes back, NO VIRUS FOUND

I"M CURED!

PS, anyone got a 1 ton dually with a big engine and a ball hitch that would pull my 28 ft sailboat from Nashville to the California Delta (back Bay between around August 1st or I will arrive there without my home. I'm being evicted because the people who own the land I'm on worry about me wintering in an uninsulated sailboat, when I've got snug electric heat with a gas back up. Oh Well, I have little contact with them anyway and my kids arere out there

Just so you know, the Wiley50 died a few months later.

Well, actually there's no such thing as medical marijuana, and it cannot be legally used anywhere in the United States.

Its sale or possession is still a federal crime.

President Bush should have raided every single dispensary in every state that passed those laws.  Federal funds  should be denied to every state that passes those kinds laws.

  I don't remember the proper federal aviation regulation offhand, and I'm not looking for it. But as a long time aircraft mechanic, (25+yrs) I know that no matter what the states may say random, pr-employment, post -accident drug-testing. Is a fed requirement with instant dismissal for a positive result. As well as  permanent loss of license . This goes for CDL drivers as well as airplane people. So no dopers in a safety related field period.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE!!!!!   WHAT ABOUT THE ACLU????!!!!!
