kilroy69 994 Posted March 22, 2018 When medical marijua was made legal here in Michigan I got my card for "chronic pain" it was a load of crap. My doc gave me a fake asss physical. Took literally 10 mins and cost 200 bucks. Got my card and by that time there was a dispensary on almost every corner. I banged a girl who's father was an owner of one of these. I am not a rookie at smoking by any stretch mind you. On Weds they get in their new product and she had a grower bring in some acapulco gold. I smoked it with her. We banged in her office and when I was done I still was so stoned I could not drive. I walked to my cousins house a few blocks away and had to stay for about an hour. I thought I might stay stoned forever. Strongest strain I have ever had. Never seen it again. Like focking keyser soze. Poof. Gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cdub100 3,383 Posted March 22, 2018 Here in Reno they have them all over too. The ones I've seen aren't as nice as that one though. It was kinda weird seeing people standing outside smoking it and lots of people smell of that dankness Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,645 Posted March 22, 2018 Just proving I live in the dumbest place ever. They outlawed dispensaries here in town. Now, you can drive 5 or 10 minutes and get weed and it's equivalents anywhere else and bring it back into town, but that whole massive windfall of tax revenue and school and Road improvements just seem to be too much of an awful awful thing for them. Meanwhile, between the mega churches with their own ZIP codes and the military bases, we have about 20% of city property that is actually revenue-generating via property taxes. We can't afford to keep the street lights on, literally. But God forbid we sell weed in city limits and collect the massive sales tax revenues. But, 'murica!

BudBro 117 Posted March 22, 2018 Until companies quit testing it does not matter, who would risk losing their job over something like this. Many companies have done away with testing, because they can't find anyone to work who isn't also smoking pot. Now, you can also purchase life insurance while disclosing the use of marijuana, without medical testing of blood or urine...just pay a higher premium. As an aside, there are mmj dispensaries throughout the city of Co Springs. As the prices have fallen from around $1500-$2000/pound to $1000/pound, there are fewer. Dispensaries here either have to grow their own "in-house," or many travel to Denver to purchase their supplies, as our county doesn't allow commercial growers. There have been hundreds of illegal grows seized, to the point the county doesn't have storage facilities for all the stuff they confiscate. We also had a time where banks wouldn't take their money on deposit because it is still a federally prohibited drug. A person is allowed to grow-your-own, up to 6 plants per adult, but you can't sell it to a dispensary. If you want a concealed weapons permit, you can't also have a red card. I would also guess that since it is still a federally regulated drug, if one were caught with a weapon while in possession of mj, things wouldn't go well.

tanatastic 2,061 Posted March 22, 2018 Until companies quit testing it does not matter, who would risk losing their job over something like this. Between legalization and medical benefits, I see testing for it either going away or being reduced greatly soon. Id care more if an employee has a drinking problem than smokes weed. In fact If Im a boss Id rather test for cigarette use so I know not to hire a guy who will be taking 20 smoke breaks a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
