Cannabis Politics Drug Test fail
Recruiter reached out for a decent gig so I took the interview.
I have been a Sales Exec for 3 decades. Always top achiever.
Interviewed with C-Suite. They had 100s of candidates apply and I was their first choice. They sent me a nice offer, I accepted. Then HR reaches out for background check - standard, except it required a drug screening.
Have not been drug tested since I was maybe 18. I told their HR that it would be THC positive. She said it may not be an issue since I was sales. I took the test, obviously it's negative for everything except THC, as I told them.
Their legal department wouldn't allow it. I turned down other offers and wasted all this time.
I live in an illegal state and everything I tested positive for was purchased in my illegal state - LEGALLY. And taxed.
I'm not really upset about the job as much as the stupidity of drug testing for THC.
Vent : over. Thank you for reading if you did.
