I don't know, there are smarter people than me figuring this out, but I don't see any changes coming any time soon to our D&A policy. Legalized or no.
Alcohol leaves the system so quickly though, while pot does not. However, impairment from pot scales out of the system at about the same rate as alcohol. If I get high the night before I go to work, then show in the morning sober as a gopher, is it reasonable to fire me because of the residuals?

I have to feel like at some point, common sense would take over.
