People that take a lot of prescription pills worry me on a job site. Especially doing construction or remodeling or driving. Any of them, pain, mood or anxiety pills, whatever. Some people have whole cabinets full and are loaded half the time. Legally.

If I had some crayons, I would try to make it more simple for you. Let’s try one more time, but I understand you will try to put something else into the equation again. If all else being equal and the ONLY difference is one applicant smokes dope but the other does not which one would you hire? BOTH applicants answer all of your questions truthfully and both are equally qualified with no other issues. Go ahead now, avoid the question and add your own BS. Be sure to call me names and spew forth some more demonstration of your superior intellect as part of your non answer.

How about you have two guys that work for you now. Neither are ever late and they do an equally satisfactory job. One drinks a fifth of crown every night so he can sleep. The other smokes a big ole medical doobie every night to relax. Business stinks so you have to fire one. Who do you cut and why?

Yep. A lot of non hackers in this world dependent on drugs and alcohol to function. Some people just get up get it done.

Not enough info for me then.

So you hire neither one?

Both and hire someone who does neither. Worst case I’d bring both in, tell them what’s going on, and flip a coin. What would you do?

Do you hire people? I haven’t really other than a few subcontractors or individuals. I really can’t imagine asking them what they do in their off time.

I'd fire the drinker. I think they've got the bigger issue. Bet they feel like crap compared to the smoker too.

What if you get up, get it done, and then have a bit of fun?

Im looking at prior work history and checking references. I will do one interview in person and one over the phone. After that its always a gamble. You never know who might work out and who wont.
I have always had really good jobs and I will say this. I have missed more coworkers who have been fired for weed than ones who have been fired for alcohol or pills. Alcoholics and pill heads are usually lazy where as a pothead will be like "Yeah, let me finish this joint and I'll get right on it.

Hundreds over 32 years but not now. Drug tests and some cases, polygraph tests for clearances.
