I hear that cannabis remains in the system for approximately 3 months, while synthetics like mdma and ice are pissed out within a few days. I used to do alot of the other shit, and the comedowns from those weekend excesses would leave me feeling shit and dysfunctional till at least Wednesday. In hindsight, probably would have gotten alot further in my chosen profession had I not spent the first half of the working week chemically imbalanced, and thank my lucky stars that I have not had to submit to a workplace drug screen.

Coming off the rails a bit there:-), what I am trying to say is this, users of cannabis in the workplace are more productive than users of other substances. Our minds are clear from Monday to Friday, most of us have enough common sense not to report to work stoned, it's illegal to drive under the influence anyway, and we are more social to our work colleagues than the scatterbrains who popped disco buiscits all weekend. I've seen a few people flip out in the workplace, done it myself on occasion, and it ain't pretty. It's these people that need to be removed, not the smoker who chooses to earn a legitimate income, while enjoying one of the finer things in life! ( in their own time ofcourse:-))
