Totally unfair to lose a job for smoking a joint 4 days ago....especially when you can get shit faced off whiskey 4 days ago with no repercussions.....

It shouldn't be illegal for us to smoke weed. The only reason is, is because of government over reach. And the only reason why it's illegal in general. Is because of corporate interests.
What we do on our own time should be our business. Yes safety is always first of course. No should anyone do drugs period while on duty or getting ready to drive the next day. But when you go home you should be able to do whatever you want.
I went for a drug screening and had diarrhea. I crapped my pants and had to leave. I dont even drink. I still got hit with a refusal. Would you have sit there with a mess in your😢 pants. Not everyone is a drug user. This is why I left trucking after 20 years of driving .
Last year I smoked bud twice. Did acid once, dropped mushrooms 5 times. ALL ON MY WEEKEND. Always on my Friday. This allowed me to recover for more than a day before I went back to work. No harm, no foul. The way I did it is how the responsible drivers who are advocating for use of these substances would do it. I won’t be doing anything for some time, but I enjoyed myself at home. I do drive tank vehicles as well. Weed, acid, and shrooms are NOT a big deal if done responsibly. Hell, neither is alcohol if used responsibly.
I got in a similar situation, it sucks and nobody has any answers for me, I did the classes but nobody will hire cause its on the clearinghouse, they didn't think the process thru very much, there is ZERO help for the drivers but they complain there aren't enough drivers and somehow there are guys with a CDL that cannot read or speak English, how does that work?
some over the counter cold medication will test positive for meth. eating hemp seed powder can make you positive for weed, neither of them make you high, but they still use it against you. not fair.
So what about the truck driver? If this was negligence on the cops part, will the driver be exonerated from all charges? WSP should be held accountable for ALL of this and the the driver has a good case against the State of Washington.
Marijuana is legal in so many states and people are subjected to second hand smoke and still can lose there job! that part needs to change! people will sleep better and maybe not drink alcohol as much!
people who eat hemp seed protein powder can test positive for weed, but it is food and it doesn't make you high, not fair. they should not be able to ban you from eating certain foods.
It's because of the legality of weed in most states. Stays in system so long people don't know their even positive. This does not mean they are using and driving. It just means they are paying for something they most likely did when they weren't being a truck driver. When they were being a us citizen. Notice I didn't say a free us citizen
To be honest I was busted on a pre employment test for thc . Dumbest thing I’ve ever did . I’m ready to rtd. I gave weed up , got to say feel great . Don’t take my cdl though I’m determined to never smoke again.
