I’m now here and also new to growing. I have learned alot of information from this site. Curious as to what everyone does for work and thoughts on drug testing in the workplace where weed is legal. I live in a legal state and jobs can still not hire you failing a screening.

I work at a dispensary in AZ. Its recreationally legal here. Companies have the right to test you for cannabis and refuse to hire you if you test positive. But thats not gonna be a thing for PLENTY of jobs now. Usually, it will be top paying or very attention oriented jobs that will test you. Companies wont waste their time and money testing you for something thats legal and accessible now. But they can still test you if you get hurt at work, and they can still use that test to deny workmans comp and block potential lawsuits.

Dispensaries seem to be opposite. Some will test and actually expect to see THC metabolites in your system, and they get upset if they see none.

Welcome to the Farm! I’m in California and here we have a law that doesn’t allow employers to discriminate for cannabis positives. I am with @Gmix in that I would never work a job that barred me from cannabis. That’s why I’ve been self employed for many moons 😁

I'm in Maryland. Luckily where I work they stopped testing for mj but others still do. I think it's up to the company.

Im totally down for freedoms of smoking weed : ) but damn I dont want some half baked retard showing up to my emergency on a fire truck or ambulance hahahah! I quit all forms of cannabis for my time on the box as I wouldn’t have felt capable. Had medic buddies who would burn outside of work, that just made me nervous for them, and these folks were the exception, you wouldn’t believe how stupid the person who just showed up to your house in a fire truck or ambulance is AND THEY PROBABLY DONT SMOKE WEED! 🤣

I did vow to never work in a place that restricted my medicinal intake though ❤️✌️

Ahahahahahah! 🤪 JUST KIDDING DONT ASK ME! hahahaha

You can cross jobs that require a CDL off of your list!

Yea gotta be REAL careful with a CDL job, theyl look for thc in your system, especially if you have an accident. The dispensary isnt allowed to disclose to anyone that you shop there, including your employer, so youl probably be fine unless you make yourself obvious or have an accident. Dont risk it though. Get fired for failing a drug test and youl struggle finding more CDL jobs

Yeah, if you have one, you’re subject to random drug tests! So you’d be rolling the dice getting loaded! Gotta play by the feds rules with a CDL! THC just stays in your system too long! Many a time I walked in to dispatch, and the guy will throw the kit at me. And tell me to get down To the occupational health clinic! Time to piss in the cup! L O L!

it's all about control in the US. the lawmakers, if you want to call them that, want to control everything. I just don't have a good feeling about the people who have tried to run this country. it's total BS that they legalize it but put constraints with it....sorry about the rant.
