You run that risk with everything, legal or otherwise.

People come to work drunk and people come to work high... I don't think the legality of the substance is relevant to users bringing it into the workplace.

Yea I know, I was just speaking in vague terms. Although, if you can convince someone who doesn't care about that subject that there is reason for everyone to care, even those who will never use, then that's a victory.

Tigger is old, like grandpa old, and old guys are furiously stubborn.

Real Talk. I don't know you or what the extent of your condition is but I would hope that your doctor proscribed a dosage that is small enough that you can complete your work without endangering yourself or anyone else.

Anyway, so if your case is valid then everyone should be able to get high at work? What's your point?

i dont work with heavy machinery, i'm an emt and a bouncer. and i take 20mg of percocets so i'm able to walk and stand without experiencing crippling pain. i NEED my pills because strangely enough i was t-boned into a phone pole by a 17 year old under the influence of a cell phone. i dont consider myself an addict and i dont consider pot a bad thing. personally i'd rather smoke pot to releive my pain than pop opiates, at least with pot there is abosolutely no chance that i could overdose. i dont want to argue the merits of pot with you since i'll just get excuses about how you only want it to be banned at work or how it's as addicting as heroin or whatever. i think you feel strongly about drugs in general due to some experiences you had and instead of looking at each one objectively you generalize them all in a group of shit thats bad.

Exactly what I originally said. Since then I have been deflecting "excuses" and "justifications" for drug/alcohol use in general. I'm more than happy to debate these things with you guys for entertainment value but I don't honestly care what you all do to yourselves.

I'm seriously pro-suicide. I mean that. If it came to a vote, I would vote yes!

And as you well know the way you phrase thing and throw names or negative connotations around induces more argument and debate. Awww...he's so cute when he pways innocent....

Okay but it's not an excuse... to be honest though, I wouldn't want to be treated by an EMT that is high... maybe that's just me...

Oh yea I can but I get a lot of incorrect words from Slide-it, so it's better that I use my LT when I have it.
