Legal Dope

[alexander jackson]

Folks, A collegue of mine has started a legal prescription on weed, he is able to smoke it without fear of prosecution as it it is medicinal. He tells me that it is good stuff . Now he is not letting management know he is on it and I now have concerns as to his work abilities, concentration and all that, as a spark its dangerous enough going into a mains board etc, etc. Where do we, I stand on such matters.
Many thanks.

Alcohol is also legal but you wouldn't drink tins of lager while you were doing a rewire.

Can't believe he thinks it's acceptable to be honest. And neither does he it seems, otherwise he wouldn't hide it from the management.

I share your concerns fully.

How many people has he told?

I doubt there is any truth in this thread. Medical cannabis is rarely prescribed in the UK, only for specific conditions where all other medicines have fails, and it wouldn't come in a smokeable form.

As far as I know myself and one other workmate, he asked us to keep mum about it at work.

No, I'm not calling you a liar. Your profile says you're from the UK, where medical cannabis is rarely prescribed:

Can I get a prescription for medical cannabis?​

Very few people in England are likely to get an NHS prescription for medical cannabis.

Currently, it is only likely to be prescribed for the following conditions:

• children and adults with rare, severe forms of epilepsy
• adults with vomiting or nausea caused by chemotherapy
• people with muscle stiffness and spasms caused by multiple sclerosis (MS)

It would only be considered when other treatments were not suitable or had not helped.

A very chilled out one, if slightly paranoid
