You know, I just read another post from Lola somewhere on cdot and I thought her answer was bang on. Then, upon further thinking I realized, that I too, am a hypocroite and a liar in that yes, I lie to certain people about my marijuana use and yes, I would lie to a potential employer about my marijuana use. So I'm even LESS than I said Michael Phelps was because I judged hiim harshly for doing the exact same thing I would do. That is some SERIOUS hypocrasy on my part.
THEREFORE.....while I completely understand Rusty's point and believe in the integrity of it, I must expose mysyelf as the true me and reanswer the question the way I feel now.
1. He needs to be MUCH more private about what he does. (And in his future.....this may include drug testing for him which is what you get for getting caught
)
but 2. No I certainly DONT expect him to stand up and say "Fuck you all, I smoke pot and am proud of it!" considering it's federally illegal. I wouldn't do it myself, I certainly don't expect him to.
3. Make sure your private life stays private and this include camera phone photos from "friends" especially if your employer has providen it. And in talking about private that means not caught for DUI eitherl.......) keep it PRIVATE..........
So, sorry I find myself doing a complete 180 and just learning something (rather unpleasant) about myself. Bummer. But there it is.
