I tell my boy the same thing. Whatever the issue, people's attitude seems to be, 'Is this going to affect my next paycheck?' If the answer is no, people really don't give a fuck. Ultimately, I'm glad that events unfolded the way they have: I get to work from home, grow awesome dank (through which I can make more money than that trading job), get to attend all my boy's mid-day school performances and activities (I'm often the only father in attendance), play mid-day tennis with some self-employed buddies, and nap when I need to. I wouldn't be able to do most of these things if still trapped in the corporate rat race...
Sounds just like my neighbor. He can't get a job because of his record. He grows outdoor every year, the wife works full time. He spends all day at school helping the teacher in his youngest son's class. He loves being able to do all that stuff you're talking about. All of his kids are some of the most respectful and awesome kids I've met. He managed to strike that perfect balance of friend and disciplinarian that most parents seem to seek. Just goes to show that felons who grow and smoke pot aren't the bad people society paints them as.

Sadly, people don't seem to be able to see the other side of the issue. With drug testing, they see people on a bad trip not going on a forklift rampage. With gun control, they see criminals not having guns. With "gay marriage" being prevented, they see the "sanctity of marriage" being saved. The problem is nobody looks at the other side of it. They don't see the guy who lost his house because he smoked weed when he wasn't working; the criminal who has a gun, and the innocent who is now unarmed; the gay couple that is denied the same legal rights as a married couple. If we actually looked at laws and asked ourselves "Is this crime encroaching on someone else's life, liberty, or happiness in a way that requires regulation?", and then threw out all the laws that punished actions that didn't do these things; we would have a few less convicts and unemployable felons in this world.

When I first got married to wife #2, I had just acquired a great job as an off-the-floor trader at a large bank in Chicago. They had too many traders that worked directly for the bank, so they hired a third party from which to get a few more traders (some loophole through which they could hire some traders as independent contractors). I did so well after 6 months that they decided to hire me to work for the bank directly, along with a hefty raise. I was on top of the world, and couldn't wait to tell my new bride that daddy's bringin' home 80k! My supervisor the stated, 'You just need to go in for drug testing. Don't worry it doesn't have to be today, you can do it tomorrow'. My heart fucking sunk to the floor, how the fuck was I going to pass a drug test? We smoked all night, every night. I tried to find a clean friend from which to borrow some piss, and realized I didn't know any. So, I went to GNC to buy their very best clean piss tea, and I drank about 5 gallons of the shit before my drug test the next day. The next Friday my supervisor called me into the president's office, he looked really distressed. He told me that I failed the test and that they wouldn't be able to hire me. I went into the usual song and dance of, 'they got it wrong! I've never done any drugs, I don't even like taking aspirin!' I then asked if I could take it again. I'll never forget what he said and esp. how he said it, 'Tyler, it's not just the fact that you were positive, but you were so positive...' I almost laughed. Everyone was sad and I thanked them for the opportunity. There were no other jobs like that around, and no one was hiring floor traders anymore as everything was moving to electronic trading. I was forced to get job after job that paid about half as much, and that didn't help the marital stress. So, I guess the moral is avoid the teas and snake oil if you need to get tested, and find someone who produces clean piss...
Damn dude that's shitty.
WTH do they need to know if we smoke pot if we're good employees? It doesn't make sense to me.

It kind of freaks me out too. I want to do some more college and get a good career going but I have a horrible feeling that it will all go to waste when I land a good job only to be sent back home for failing drug test. I've heard of good fake piss stuff, but I still don't trust it. I shouldn't have to depend on fake urine to save years of college and hard work. Fuckers. If you showed you can do the job then it doesn't matter if you smoke pot.

This is some shit tyler.. I'm gonna smoke a bowl lol.

Man up.
build your future now. if you have to stop smoking for any amount of time it will be worth
getting in the door. after you get the first check then play games if you must.

Why are you always such a dick towards me?

I will be forced to take your advice though.
I want to be in a trade. I'd like to be an electrician since they're promised work for years to come. But during the four years of trade school I'll have to attend, I'll also have to do 2,000 hours of work each year. That sounds awesome to me since the work will pay for my education and they promise a steady job for four years and pretty much till retirement. The part I don't like is how they will be constantly drug testing me for the four years while I go through apprentice training.

Hopefuly I'll be able to get my liscense and be my own boss after. But fuck, those four years are gonna suck, no doubt. It's not a matter of "manning up".. I'll be forced to do that. It's just a complaint and a question. Why does it matter if I smoke pot if I get the job done with ease?

I had the idea that someone who takes no drugs should start a Clean Piss & Hair Sample business: they would go to parties and bars and spread the word that about their service. Clean Hair & Piss samples within 24 hours. They could even get a few other guys of different ages and ethnic backgrounds to get specific to the client. This biz would fucking clean up! I would personally pay $500 for that service, probably more...

You would pay $500? Holy shit man that's alot for some piss and hair ha. I wouldn't charge that much. I'd probably charge $50.

You could advertise it anywhere too. It won't be against the law as long as you say you're selling your piss for other reasons. Interesting idea, too bad it would require me to go clean for good lol.

If someone found themselves in a similar situation to the one I found myself in (to get or keep a great job), I would think that would be worth $500 easy. I would've paid a grand back then :) Like you say, what laws would you be breaking if you were to get caught selling piss? It'd be a hilarious trial...

P.S. Love the sig...

Wow, it's a wonder stoners can grow marijuana successfully. I just jarred my first batch of NY-47 for curing, and smoked a couple of bowls. Holy Shit! I think it broke part of my brain, I felt truly retarded. Love this strain! Super dense, uber frosty buds, grows tall enough in flower straight from clone. For some reason, I thought it would be a great idea to clean my reflectors' glass... during lights on. So, I undid the thumb screws, held the hinged glass and proceeded to clean it with windex on a paper towel. While cleaning close to the vent I let go of the paper towel and it got sucked through the vent hose! I heard it stuck near the fan and started to panic that it would be fucked up, so I quickly closed the glass and walked over to unplug the fan. As soon as I did the glass swung down and crushed a few plants and knocked over half the plants on the table! In my panic, I forgot to screw the glass back in, it was only being held in place by the suction of the fan. After I cleaned up the perlite and taped many stalks, I just had to laugh. It was like an I Love Lucy skit ;) I think I'll be cleaning my glass during lights off from now on. Anyone else want to admit to stellar stoner decisions in the grow room?

^^ My experienced friend, with all the illegal substances you've ingested over the years I suspect two things:

Your ponytail would never pass a drug test

It's color(s) is probably not far off from your pic :)

I have no growing related ones that come to mind. I did once toast 2 pop tarts with a bic, because the toaster was 30' away. Can't beat fire roasted. :p
