I worked for a tech company in a legal state 5-10 years back. There were a lot of stoners there because most people couldn’t handle their bullshit in a sober state of mind and the company just wanted asses in seats to fulfill their contract obligations. I’m pretty sure Subway would go out of business if the weed disappeared. Your best bet is to make good enough friends with someone who works there (as a normal low-level employee) that you can ask an honest question without getting narced on. At my tech job, I treated the stoners with the same mild indifference as everyone else. Let me do my job, pretend to be normal, and don’t do anything I can’t ignore. Do not brag about smoking weed in front of management or anyone who makes enough money to care. The only people who got pinched did it to themselves.

Not unless I had no other choice.

Basically I’d have to face losing my house before I’d choose a job that drug tests outside of new hires or when somebody fucks up big time and it’s suspicious.

I’d also leave ASAP.

I live in Ohio and am currently looking for work.

I’m still paying to places that say drug testing, but not places that specify thc testing.

As far as I’m concerned, it’s a legal state, and unless they have similar testing and employment rules for alcohol (which they wouldn’t be able to since it doesn’t show up two weeks later) then I should be able to smoke when I want, off the clock.

If they test and it prevents me from getting the job, I feel slightly satisfied I wasted their time and money. If they follow up and ask about it, I will tell them straight up it’s legal in this state and they’re only limiting their options by refusing to hire people who do a legal thing.

It’s probably just wasting my own time, but hey I’ve got time to waste.

I’ve never used drugs, but I wouldn’t work for a place who would ask about it.

No. While I am not a recreational drug user, drug testing is a gross violation of natural human rights and I would not want to be associated in any way with a company that engages in such unethical behavior.

Personally, no. But I’m the kind of person who walked out of a doctor’s office when they told me they wanted to regularly drug test me if I wanted them to take over my prescriptions for meds I was already on.

Would you take the job if offered, knowing you’d need to restrict your cannabis use on workdays so you’re not driving high? If so, why not go for the interview with the same number of hours post-toke as you’d consider driving for the job? If you pass you pass, and if not, maybe a driving-around job is not a good fit for you. If it’s not legal, scrap the whole plan, you don’t need to be courting legal trouble.

No. I’m not wasting my time to make a point.

Most low wage jobs in the US have a mandatory drug test when you’re hired, which is easy enough to defeat. The only things that don’t leave your system after a couple days are all the mild things like weed.

I’ve had several retail and service jobs where I had to drug test before getting hired and just took a “cleaner” from a headshop before doing them and passed each time despite using the devils lettuce in my off time, but none of these were places that do random testing after being hired. Being able to be choosy with jobs is somewhat of a luxury in the US, so consider yourself fortunate.

A delivery job is a tossup because it may be more heavily regulated than jobs that don’t involve heavy machinery. If it’s a delivery job that requires a CDL, I would skip it because you can be pulled over and tested at any time. Even marijuana can be penalized here since these jobs are covered by federal regulations and national insurance companies which have requirements for a drug free workplace.
