Oct 20

Once "random" drug testing resumed when all of us IC Feds went back to work, I got a notice. Now, at this point I was 55 yo. I went and peed in the cup like a good little drone. Then proceeded to the "personal information" stage. I had a young man that was old enough to be my son lecture me on "you could lose your clearance if you do marijuana." All the while, he was wearing a nice leather jacket with the Jagermeister logo on it. I just gave him the "old lady look" and said that I have been employed with the government since 1987, I have never used marijuana, and if I did, it would be medical marijuana. Plus, I guess that Jager Bombs are okay, but taking a CBD gummy to get to sleep is not. He didn't answer me, just glared and told me to leave.

One of the first things I did when I retired was get some CBD. I did try some regular weed gummies, but wound up consuming and entire box of Quest Peanut Butter Cups. So, that's when I decided that I couldn't afford the weed munchies, and just stuck with CBD.
