220. Let's look at the reality of the situation -
- even if cannabis is legal, use of it can still potentially impact your employment. Alcohol is legal. If your driving record reflects a DUI received on private time, you'll not be getting any job that involves driving a company truck. Cigarettes are legal, yet some companies have begun not hiring smokers. I agree, let's make cannabis legal. And some employers will STILL require drug tests. No change - No gain.

I don't know what type work is involved but there is a possibility that he will still be required to pass a drug test even if cannabis is legal. The good news is that he has a job when many don't. Whining because you have to pass a drug test to keep that job is simply pathetic. No sympathy from me.
