Holy shit I miss weed....

OP, I work in the same field as you..... I eventually decided it was worth the risks; yes I have a medical marijuana card, yes I could still lose my job if I get drug tested, but it's not worth the anxiety around it. If I get drug tested and lose my job and license, it'll be a blessing in disguise.
I simply decided over a long period of time my job isn't worth sacrificing my happiness, health and quality of life. You've gotta stand by something.
I'm a daily toker, never been tested since I was hired. RNs have much more responsibility so more to worry about.
I struggled with the question of to smoke or not to smoke for a long time; and ultimately I decided to smoke because my anxiety and stress was so bad without it. Now my quality of life is much higher. Definitely worth the risk. No worries, be happy.

 

this is such a foreign concept to me, as a canadian. nobody here gets drug tested, that i know of, unless you're involved in a workplace accident or something and they want to make sure that you're not drunk or coked out.

 

edited: thought about my post for a bit, answered me own question.

 

How can I agree with him when I never disagreed in the first place, I simply was curious if his convictions are based on fact or just emotional hyperbole, as your following statement would suggest yours are.

My overall point is learn the laws in your state instead of just having asinine emotional reactions. More often than not, employers and law enforcement DON'T want you to know the laws.

I have challenged random testing at an employer by pointing out all the slippery legal loopholes on both sides of the fence. The president of the company decided the potential benefit of workplace screening was by far overshadowed by the potential negatives and did not adopt drug screening.
