It's an interesting, yet frustrating time to be a stoner (midwest.social)

I currently live in one of the few illegal states in the US. There is a "dispensary" a block away from my house where you can buy something that looks, smells, and makes you feel the same way regular weed does.

I'm also currently contracted at a company that hires DOT employees, so they implement random drug testing for everyone. I work a very technical desk job, and an occasional bowl was the best way to rest my brain after work.

So, if I walk up the street and purchase a bag of hemp and smoke it, I could lose my job.

OR I can walk a bit further and get black out drunk at a bar, and call out of work the next day (something I have done before).

What's fucked is the tests also cover alcohol, but being hung over isn't against the rules, even if I'm far more impaired than if I smoked a bowl a week ago.

Not sure why I posted this, can probably remove it. Just feel the need to vent I suppose.

Are you sure the tests would detect whatever synthetic cannabinoid you have available? Afaik most common drug tests dont react to HHC for example

Yes, unfortunately. Everything here is delta 8 or delta 9. I've even heard someone pissing hot from cbd. I guess if you take it enough, the trace thc can build up.
