I had an employee that smoked pot. I knew he smoked it and told him that he could do whatever he pleased as long as he kept it out of my business. In other words, I told him to keep it at home and I wouldn't bother him.
He was selling to others to fund his habit. He had pot in his car and would meet up with people and sell in my back parking lot. I confronted him and told him it had better not happen again. I explained that he was AT work even though he wasn't IN work and that he could cause me to get shut down, thus denying me a way to make a living. I sell to lots of kids and minors and a pot charge to one of my employees would be a death sentence to my business...Literally! He agreed to my terms and went back to work.
Two days later he handed a bag of weed to a fellow employee IN THE STORE and also did a deal in the back lot with a customer. I FIRED him like a fucking gun. I also nearly beat the living shit out of him for gambling my families future on his dope habit!
Does that make me a dick for interfering in HIS personal activities?
His personal activities cost him his job just the same. I tell most people who ask that the guy moved away but he really got fired for being STUPID. His choice, not mine.

You should have fired him the first time he did a deal while working, still that is waaay off from smoking cigarettes away from work.
