Poo transplants

[Huhuh]

Weed is a bit of a funny subject these days. I don't feel too strongly about legalising it or keeping it illegal.

Many will argue it has few negative effects, which is probably true, provided you use it sparingly. It's the chronic users that are the problem.

My dad was the technical manager (above him the general manager, then the millionaire boss) at a tanning factory, where he was in charge of hiring/firing, creating recipes for particular styles of leather and other general supervisor duties.

He would often come home with stories of people screwing up and causing general disorder within the workplace. The most disruptive were the P heads for obvious reasons, the stoners, and foreigners (language barriers led to a fair few costly mistakes). Many of the stoners refused to turn up to work on a regular basis and when they did, they were often the cause of workplace injuries. For example, two brilliant workers were operating a press for squeezing the moisture out of the leather, pothead number one left his hand on the press and his co-worker was too blazed to press the emergency stop. Having to peel your hand apart from a piece of leather is not a good look.

In my opinion, if you decide to smoke pot, do it, but do it in your own home. When you're too high to do your job and start putting others at risk, then I've got a massive problem with it.

My father once said "Pot smokers that smoke weed on a regular basis turn into selfish, lazy, uninteresting *******s who only care/talk about the next time they're gonna get high." Now this is probably true of some of the users in the lower classes of society, where they've got little else to look forward to, but those who are better off generally have better things to do (and if you don't, I feel sorry for you).
