why would i ever need to pass a drug test? I don't work in a warehouse

maybe if i wrecked a company vehicle they would drug test me if they felt like it, then I'd whip out the medical MJ card and be like na na na boo boo if you punish me for weed i can sue you.

If you work for a public utility, you are likely not protected in the event of an accident, weed or no, in the state of Pennsylvania.

forget medical weed for a min, like half the state has decriminalized it, and major cities have legalized it within city limits.

so finding someone who doesn't test positive for weed is nigh impossible these days.

"medicinal marijuana" is technically prescribed by a "doctor" (it's all a bullshit ploy to enable people's access to weed under the guise of medicine, but since that avenue was the one they used, it gave the public a legal excuse to test positive for weed)

and there is no science that exists which can prove in-court whether or not you are "high" at the time of an accident

only that you have at some point within the last 30 days consumed THC

all you gotta do is be like, "I smoked weed last saturday, and here is my medical weed card"

so then the only recourse the employer has in PA is the "at-will-employment" agreement, which is the norm in PA. employers and employees can terminate employment at anytime with or without reason

so then if i got fired for wrecking a company vehicle, I'll point to hundreds of cases of employees who wrecked vehicles and kept their jobs, claiming some sort of discrimination my over-paid lawyer will come up with, then they'll settle out of court because it's not worth their trouble, give me a check and a non-disclosure agreement, and i'll never have to work again and the public will never hear about it.

happens literally all the time

"medicinal marijuana" is hilarious to me.

if you go to a doctor and say, "I'm depressed, or I have anxiety, or I have back pain" the doctor is gonna prescribe a course of treatment specific to your ailment.

if you go to a "weed doctor", the answer to everything is weed. Depressed? Weed. Anxiety? Weed. Body Pains? Weed. Alzheimers? FUCKIN WEED LOL the memory loss disease can be treated by a drug that causes memory loss.

the weed doctors are like Oprah with the giveaway stuff

YOU GET WEED

AND YOU GET WEED

EVERBODY GETS WEED !!!

I've been a medical card holder for years now, but unlike CA, in AZ you never could get a medical script for THC for any mental health reason. It had to be stuff like for dealing with chronic pain, appetite assistance, etc

But like you said, they give you a list of covered reasons right away, and I specifically found a place that doesn't ask for any medical paperwork proof of illness. I told them I get blinding migraines (which is technically true, but I only get them like 1x/year)

The interesting thing though is that the doctor(s) did actually always lecture me a bit about other things I could than THC. Then some of them would give me shit for the amount of mg I would take in my edibles. They'd be like you know 10mg edibles is like 7 bong hits right???

And I'm sitting here thinking "I would be almost hallucinating with 7 bong hits, that can't be right. Plus some of the chicks at the weed shop tell me they do 100mg in a sitting..."

By the time the doctors started lecturing me about alternatives to THC I could try I felt like cutting them off with:

"Ok let's keep this simple. I'm paying you guys cash right now. And you're giving me a script. Let's cut out this foreplay"

yeah it was all some bs ploy to increase public access to MJ. "bong hit" is not a unit of measurement.

there is no standardization of thc content in weed you smoke nor is there any regulation about the mg in your edibles. they will have a lab test a sample from a batch, never assuring consistency of the entire batch.

same goes for when you buy flower at a dispensary, "18" or 20%" thc on the weed label is about as reliable as chinese maple syrup.

not that i buy anything from a dispensary, they are alot more expensive than any street weed. shit that I buy is usually from an illegal online dealer. USPS ships right to my house w/ tracking #

been doing that over 3 years now.

check leafedout.org

if any cops wanna hassle me because i dont carry weed in the dispensary containers they'll receive my ID, my medical card then they can cite me for whatever that law is and fuck their mothers.

im also not stupid enough to regularly drive around with contraband, and people never suspect that im a pothead anyway, i don't have the look, the attitude, or the smell

No, it was a political strategy that involved an end-run around an archaic Federal drug system where moving anything out of Schedule 1 is nearly impossible. Schedule 1 status was causing distress to medical patients that needed access to cannabis for medical purposes. You can find old youtube videos still of law enforcement officers arresting patients when they had days left to live.

Don't look at your own cannabis use at the reason MJ was made legal for medical reasons in some states. Actual real patients demanded it.

You happened to benefit from the success of their strategy.

Not a BS ploy at all. An impressively well conceived strategy that has slowly worked.

if a regulated pharma company was the distributor, it would be legit. There is no reliable system of dosage at a dispensary, or from the doctor.

there is nothing stopping pharma from selling THC pills, in fact they do and those pills have exacting dosages with the same medicinal benefits.

but the fact you can legally purchase and consume marijuana flower, means that it's like you said, an end run to get around a stupid prohibition.

don't fool yourself into believing that this is some miracle treatment. it's just legal pot, and there is $billions to be made.

Yeah, same

I tell people "I like pot, I don't like most of pot culture"

Of course the ignorant reactionary assumes he knows more about laws than lawyers, was else was I expecting?
