After my last meth lab blew up my motor home, I quit doing it.

I started on lisdexamfetamine recently.  My productivity is much higher.  My 
focus still drifts elsewhere, but I find I recenter on my main task more 
quickly.

 

ADHD is profoundly genetic by the way.  If your son has it then you or his 
mother does.  The current thinking is that it’s so widespread because it’s a 
survival adaptation which happens to not always fit well into the structures of 
our modern life.  A study in Kenya compared a nomadic population with a settled 
one.  The genes responsible are well known, so they could identify who in each 
population had them and compare their outcomes.  Among the settled population 
the kids with ADHD genes had worse grades in school, and the adults were less 
well nourished.  Among the hunter-gatherer nomads, the people with ADHD genes 
were more well nourished.  

 

We probably shouldn’t medicate kids for it as much as we do, but I’m saying in 
my case a little bump of amphetamine in the morning does me good.

OK, looking at it another way. Some people need meds to be normal. My son has a 
prescription for lisdexamfetamine because he has ADHD. He's not impaired, and 
it's not like he's a meth head.

That said, I can see a problem if your employee wants to smoke a joint in the 
workplace. Bigtime secondhand smoke problem. And if you don't want him 
operating machinery or vehicles, your insurance company would probably agree.

Has he asked to bring his emotional support alligator to work yet?

First I would ask for the Dr. to call me.  2nd I would suspend the employee 
until the Dr. calls me.  It could be a type of pot that doesn't impair but I 
wouldn't want to take the chance.  Third, I'd find someone not impaired and 
have them do the job.  Put the doper in charge of a broom until layoff time.

    I have always had employees that were in rehab.  But never had anyone using 
at work before this guy.  He pointed to the fact he has a pot card for anxiety. 
 I have a card in my pocket that says I am old enough to buy whisky too, but I 
doubt any employer would be OK with me sucking a flask while working.  

     

    I know certain prescription conventional drugs can make you not safe to 
operate equipment.  But this guy had to operate equipment as part of his job.  
I would make an accommodation for someone that had pain meds temporarily that 
left them a bit impaired but not as an every day thing.  

     

    This guy was MAX drama too.  One thing I tell everyone when I hire them, 
the only thing I really care about is no drama.  Do not bring your drama to 
work.

      …..which I would do anyway.  If they’re working on getting straight I 
don’t want to stand in their way.  I don’t know if anyone goes to rehab for pot 
though.  Probably not.

      Utah code 26-61a-111(4)..

       

      "Nothing in this section requires a private employer to accommodate the 
use of medical cannabis or affects the ability of a private employer to have 
policies restricting the use of medical cannabis by applicants or employees."

       

      There are also federal court cases where the court has determined that 
marijuana use is not subject to the ADA.
