No, I haven't, and I never will.

You do not smoke a bowl of marijuana all day every day and go run a business (not one that's successful, at least), let alone a fortune 500 company, for very long if we are talking about long term, steady progress.

You're the #2 guy, I suppose? It cures everything and illicits extreme productivity from extreme professionals, right? Newsflash: NO SUBSTANCE does that- not sustainably.

Some of the most miserable sons a bitches I've ever had to collaborate with would rather of dipped out to go smoke a joint than get a project completed. I'm talking about those kinds of people: The ones who identify themselves with pot and smoking it all day.

Not a damned one of them is worth a flying frick in a professional setting, partly because few if any of them are even present in a professional setting where other high performing individuals are working. You can't be high on a substance, any substance, that is almost always- hell, it is inherently- a downer, and yet still perform at high levels for long periods, day after day, year after year. Weed doesn't make you superman bro, and I hate to tell you this, but if you're a multiple times a day, heavy smoker, the people who have to work with you down at the local Walgreens and who have to depend on your results have long since gotten really really really tired of your bullshite.

I assure you that the people like myself who take a hit when the time is right and who toke responsibly because others depend on them and who know that it would impede the day's progress are far far more numerous in a professional setting than one who is a pot addict.

In a workplace setting requiring high performance work ethics, a pot addict is one of the saddest sacks of shite you can be cursed to work with, and he's almost always a shell of the person he might could be, because he stays stoned 24-7. It's a sad state of affairs to be in a fog every waking day of your life because of a substance- any substance- let alone the pitiful life results that come from it in the sense of sustainable long term affects and results (or lack thereof). To be stoned 24-7 on any vice is not only irresponsible, it's selfish and it's weak.

Weak men don't stay high all day, every day for decades on their drug of choice while their world around them folds up. They handle their shite, THEN go home and toke, drink, etc.

Pot is no different than alcohol, Adderall, cocaine, etc.: over do it and you will see negative consequences.

Sorry bud, I know you potheads get all worked up if somebody talks about your girlfriend, but your beloved pot is no more immune to the laws of actions and consequences than the daytime is immune to daylight.

But you do you, it's none of my damn business, and neither is mine any of yours.

Just know that you're the narc no one tells they smoke because of this. Plenty of professionals, successful professionals, smoke.

Ever heard of Steve Jobs or Richard Branson? Did they wake and bake and smoke all day long? Of course not. But, they were/are regular users. I know plenty of partners in big law firms in NOLA that are regular users, just not when they work. I've smoked with a judge from NOLA.

For the pictures, and hoping one day you might want someone to do a cannabis sommelier internship. I'm definitely willing to relocate to a state where I won't be breaking the law. Have a friend in Bellingham that I'd like to visit once the airlines get back to something close to normal.
