MODERATORS
THC is a drug. Like caffeine, alcohol, CBD, Tylenol, Nicotine, etc.
unlike caffeine or Tylenol, nicotine, etc, it doesn't boost productivity, so the oligarchs don't want you on it at work.
Alcohol is legal, and it is not acceptable to be drunk at work.
Weed being legal similarly doesn't mean it has to be acceptable to be high at work.
I've been to many dinner business meetings with plenty of drinking. To the point that rides are needed to get people home.
And I've smoked weed with a CEO. The fact that outliers exist doesn't change anything.
My point is that it's "normal" to have a drink or two at a business meeting. So it is completely acceptable to drink at work, you just have to have the right job I guess.
That's an outlier. For the vast majority of jobs, drinking during a meeting will get you disciplinary action.
