See that's the problem with THC (or the beauty of THC to the anti-pot people). It stays in your system LONG after the intoxicating effect. Testing for THC a week or so after consumption does not mean the person is showing up to work impaired. Cocaine, heroin, MDA, LSD, alcohol are washed from the body very fast so they are rarely tested for and seldom found in drug tests. Pot is easy to check for, used by many, so it's the one that's most targeted. I have no problem firing lazy-ass workers that show up for work impaired, but I do have a problem firing someone that smokes a joint on their own time and still may have some trace amounts of THC in their blood.
