"My friend pushed me into a big bush of pot."
As the number of medical marijauna users in Colorado is rising exponentially, this is leaving employers dazed and confused. Generally, it has been presumed that employers can fire workers for using, medicinally or not.

Please refer to page 8 of your Company Handbook.
