Weed isn't a drug. Best Buy just hasn't realized it.

The only opinion that matters here is the one of the person you're seeking employment from //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Indeed...

So I'm heading over to some friends' house to watch them smoke and abstain, for now, until I'm more sure of the testing policy.

So far it's 1 - 1, a tie between regular testing and employement testing.

I was gonna sell some Sony Xplods..................

but then i got high do do doooo

i was just fucking with you i believe you get one test and after that you are good to go.. might be different if you work in a part of the store where you need to operate a forklift or something though.

I would have to be high though to suggest a Sony woofer... So maybe they should actually promote drug use among employees?

Yeah but you gotta sell what they got. As someone else mentioned the other day sucks to sell stuff to people who work hard to pay for things when you know there are much better options available to me. But I guess you get used to it.

Apparently neither has the government or our society in general.

When I was young I loved partaking too, but learned real quick that a job, house, and car were much more important priorities.

/yourself.

There is no way you can say THC isn't a drug... Thats just dumb. I do, however, agree that it should not be illegal.

Anyway, good luck. The BB near me was ****ing terrible at hiring.

While THC may technically be a drug, I meant the term drug to mean anything you can overdose on. Heroin, cocaine, etc., or something highly addictive. Marijuana is neither.

And the majority of our society feels that weed is less dangerous than alcohol, and there is a greater percentage of young americans who feel weed should be legal than feel the drinking age should be lowered, so that's tells you something.

BUT I DIGRESS... Surely there are SOME people here who have worked at Best Buy other than the ones who have already posted...

Actually, weed is a drug.

Granted its not anywhere near as bad as any other drug out there, its still a drug though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

This is going to turn into a weed v.s. alcohol thread real quick //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif (even though its true, alcohol is worst then weed...by far)

Drug Testing.
Is it pre-employement only, or do they randomly ask you to submit a sample?

pre-employment only

You have to take a Drug Test before you get hired and that is it... they don't do random tests or anything like that.
