"don’t expect to have a job"

The big question in Colorado: can employers legally discriminate against stoners?

Personally, I wouldn't hire a Stoner to stock shelves, much less participate in a dangerous environment.

Companies have successfully been able to not hire tobacco smokers. I don’t think this will be any more difficult.

Someone pointed out they are discriminating against nicotine smokers, which is legal, so it would seem they can treat stoners similarly.

Yes. Yes, they can.

 

Legal or not, you could get fired for smoking pot (Colorado)
