If your mad today

Im mad because 15 years ago I got caught with an ounce of pot. Since then I have been self employed, well work has been slow so I tried to get hired overnights at target. Everyone at the store liked me and hired me on, I passed drug test no problem, but when they did my background check corporate said I cant be employed by target. Its bullshit that a marijuana charge from 15 years ago should cause that.

Pot head.

Quit smoking weed you stupid junkie

 
I agree, even though I have not smoked in a long time, the laws are nuts. And it has gotten worse here in Fla since I was arrested, at least back then the judge had some say in your case. Now if you get caught with an ounce its a mandatory minimum of a year and the judge has no say in it. There should at least be a time limit, if a charge wasnt violent or job related they should not hold it against you forever.

theres a reason why they call it dope, ya know,...... j/k, im an avid pothead myself, its total b/s how things from long ago can affect your life and give you a bad rep,.... da reeefahh should be legalized!!!!!!

There shouldnt be a limit

Weed is weed. If you got a gram or if you got an ounce.

Your still in possession of pot and should suffer the appropriate consequences.

 
Ok let me make sure ive got this straight. I understand I was young and I violated a law. I served my jail time and my probation time and have never ****ed up in the 15 years since. But you are of the belief that, that should prevent someone from getting a job forever. Your view is that if someone gets busted for possesion once no matter how many years they go without ****ing up afterwords a company should never hire them again for the rest of their life. Have I followed this correctly?
