Why should that mean it isn't real?

I understand looking professional, but screening their employees? C'mon.
I guess its based in Cali anyway so if they have a medical card it wouldn't matter anyway, right? So, maybe its just a  to sound better.

Dude, I know this sounds CRAZY, but some people probably use their soil to grow things besides pot and I bet NOT everyone who works for FoxFarm is a pot head. 
Kinda weird though, but if you got the med card, it wouldn't matter anyway...and I wouldn't be that surprised if they're pretty lax on the testing for real.

not necessarily. The employer has the right to terminate an employee for having pot in their system even if they have a medical card. The CA supreme court ruled that a year or two ago.

I hate that faggotry.
If your job doesn't involve heavy machinery can they fire you for needing pain killers to treat MS or similar diseases?

I assume that was a rhetorical question. However, I know in Arizona and New Mexico you are an employee at will (unless under a contract). That just means your employer can terminate you for just about any reason. IDK though, maybe if they did that you could file a discrimination claim if you have a severe disability and they fire you for taking your meds. it's a slippery slope, which is why that case made it to the SC of ca.

It was more literal than rhetorical, thanks for clarifying. That's pretty crazy for people working AZ and NM. In MA they have to have a good reason for firing you, I guess we're always looking for any reason to file a lawsuit though.

Most states are employment at will states and you can be fired for just about any reason, except for a few.

Hmm, i was just rethinking about this. I wonder what's happened to the people who had the government provide them with cannabis. Surely, they aren't able to be terminated from employment for using what the government provides them, hand rolled joints.

If the feds are giving them cannabis I'd be surprised if they could work.

Irvin Rosenfeld works as a stock broker. Claims to be really successful too. I've got no reason to doubt him.
