Courts Are Beginning to Rule Against Employers Who Discriminate Against Medical Marijuana Users

“(HARTFORD, Conn.) — Health care worker Katelin Noffsinger told a potential employer that she took medical marijuana to deal with the effects of a car accident, but when a drug test came back positive, the nursing home rescinded her job offer anyway.

A federal judge last month ruled that the nursing home, which had cited federal laws against pot use, violated an anti-discrimination provision of the Connecticut’s medical marijuana law.

It was the latest in a series of clashes between U.S. and state laws around the country that came out in favor of medical marijuana users trying to keep or obtain jobs with drug-testing employers.

The Connecticut decision was the first ruling of its kind in a federal case and followed similar recent rulings against employers by state courts in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Earlier rulings had gone against medical pot users in employment cases by state supreme courts including those in California, Colorado, Oregon and Washington over the past few years.”

Agreed. Most of my platoon was smoking the Afghan Kush over there. Honestly, I don’t think it’s impairing. Like any other medicine, you just have to build a therapeutic tolerance to it.

You realize I have the worst PTSD, and due to hypervigilance, I’m probably going to fixate on that. I really hope you’re kidding, dear, because I’m going to pretend you are if you’re not just to avoid getting weird on everyone. :eyesmoke:
You and a whole gang of folks on here.
Welcome to the club & find some one to talk about it.
First Dr. I saw started with the scrips - I fired him and was lucky enough to find a therapist that was willing to work at the problem rather than bury it in RX.

I’ve been off pills since early 2016. The Psychedelics helped get past the depression and brooding. My biggest issue is that my Sympathetic Nervous System seems to have a mind of its own and I have adrenaline rushes over the dumbest shit.

I was being semi-funny, it’s just not the first time I’ve ever heard that this place is being watched by the National Subversion Agency/Spooks/Fibby/the Dea.

Ive been sober from lovely Mary jane for almost two weeks meow. Perhaps more I dunno I stopped counting

Mary jane will always be there for me when I return from playing army soldier.

The days of FEDERAL reform are coming soon though for;
Dat moment when even your local barber shop is selling CBD n shit. Why can't soldiers be allowed to smoke ONLY weed+tobacco and drink a lil'?
