Whats wrong with flipping burgers? I'm sure Howard Stern flips burgers at his multi million dollar mansion as he torches his blunt. I also know quite a few lawyers and Realtors and mortgage brokers and a few of the more elite professionals do too, while they flip burgers in their back yards.

Again, I ask, whats wrong with flipping burgers?

Couldn't agree more with this statement.

Like I told my little brother - who is now doing graduate work at Morgantown, Know when to party and when to work. If you want to smoke weed, go to college and get a good education. That way you can smoke weed all you want. (When you're the employer you get to do what you want, with the exception of pi**ing off your client base - if you want to stay in business.) If you want to drive with a CDL, the law says its illegal. When it becomes legal, smoke all you want. However; if your driving stoned or drunk, stay off the roads with that big truck please.

Good advice man. Thanks for your post ~ it's nice to see some positive comments around here, rather than the ones from others that think they're better than most because they never had drug problems.

Cheers!

Happy, how did you test positive? Were you in the room where people were smoking weed, was there weed in the brownies, was the test wrong?


did you retest negative within 72 hours or did you go through a program?

These guys are all over you for a reason. Drug users will usually do anything to get drugs. I hope that you have really learned from your incident. Habits are hard to break and if you are over 21,22,23 years old and still smoking weed, YOU WILL DO IT AGAIN. Good luck and stay off the big road.

You would have to be with the people smokin weed for hours on end to fail a test from second hand smoke.
