Just curious. What does legalizing drugs do to pre-employment and random drug screens? Since pot would be legal, how long would you have to wait for favorable drug results? Would you just quit testing for drugs too?

As far as I know, employers are free to test for legal or illegal drugs.

There will be an increase in sales of drug-masking potions.

Just because it is legal doesn’t make it OK at Home Depot. They do not want the liability for some stoner driving a fork lift and hurting someone.

Would you just quit testing for drugs too?.....They would have to start all over, retreat and regroup. As a safety auditor I talked to a guy 20 years ago who was safety manager for a large manufacturing plant. I asked to see his drug plan for employees and he showed me a written plan, took me to a window and said ‘ Do you see those people out there?’ I said ‘Yes’. He said ‘ If we shut the place down, RIGHT NOW and made all of them piss in a jar, I’d be the only person with a car in the lot.’ The people I looked down the floor at numbered about 300 plus.
