    Probably time to grow up my man.
    I just got rid of 3 drivers all related. All failed a random drug test.

    Two of them were running team they drove off the road in Iowa 1100 for towing. And then they did the same exact thing right before their delivery in Chicago. Another 1200$ turns out they were smoking inside the truck zoning out and driving off of the road. They were all related and they all got fired together as a package.
    Not only are you hurting yourself but you could hurt someone else. You want to drive lay off the pipe

    Someone I know even saw it happen and sent me his footage

    Lucky is an understatement yes. As bad as I wanted to I couldn’t leave the stranded or else I would have had them leave the truck and walk home.

    Not that we're all "do gooders" but it seems most of us know what is right and wrong. I smoked more than my fair share of weed. When it was time to grow up and do right I did it! Upon retirement or hitting the lottery I will be the first one out looking for a fat bag of some dank sticky bud!! Lol!

    I see nothing wrong with smoking weed on your time off..just like drinking a beer..affects wear off after a few hours.
    The way folks beat up the poor pot smokers is hilarious to me.

    There is zero leeway when it comes to drug use in this industry. If you're too thick to get it and get caught you deserve what's coming to you.
