      I’ve usually had to drug test exactly once, but some jobs not even that. I’m wondering how it’s gonna be now as pot is legal where I live

        When CT legalized, one part of the law makes it illegal to deny employment based on a positive test for cannabis unless you’re in a few specific industries (medical, childcare, any company that has federal contracts). When the testing center called me to discuss my results the woman on the phone was shocked I didn’t care that it was positive lol

        If you’re in the US, it’s still illegal by federal law. Some states just aren’t enforcing it.

        I live in a state that has passed a law to legalize it, but federal-related jobs still test for it and have reminders about it being illegal.
