I used to go into work high everyday.
I went in one day on a straight head and one of the supervisors hauled me into the office and said “If you come in in that state again, you’re getting the sack” I was like wtf
Haha I went to work high everyday for ten years. They only knew my high face. So they couldnt tell I was high everyday. Until I got caught up in a random drug test
If you spend years working one way and all of a sudden you aren’t lol
When I tried to quit a couple years ago, I had a similar situation… Basically had to train myself how to do my job of 5 years all over again…
I feel your pain. This flying straight thing is like learning how to walk again. It’s surprising how much I’ve been feeling the battle scars of a life well lived.
@Schmokey How long you been sober for then?
Haha never mind an ex @Ghandisflipflop that’s me every day mate unless I care about the topic then I’m not interested but then again I’m a no drama llama out here and a lot of people fucking love it unfortunately
Just after i finished my apprenticeship, I took a mate to work with me. We had a few pipes before we started, and half an hour later he was taking me to the hospital (28 stitches internal and external in my knee). Never, ever, smoked before work again…but i was a freakin chimney from knock off until bed
Drama llama haha I like it.
New name for the sister
What happened like?
I used to take ecstasy in the morning my job was cutting trees and brash down at the time. (We were using pruning saws at the time no chainsaws involved).
I used to end up not cutting anything and start wondering around the woods looking at the nature .
When I read this back it sounds bad.
My excuse is I was young and daft. I’m now older and dafter but that’s life.
No drugs now though just a bit weed.
I consume around three bowl during a shift. But I am in sales so it pays to be talkatively high. And I lift about 1-2 tons of freight a week in our shipping and receiving. And honestly I get more done when I am high. It a high stress job and not easy on the body so cannabis is a god send. Plus our entire company smokes pot so no drug test or clear eyes. As long as customers don’t complain your Golden. And I drink on the job too. With the customers…
Sounds great but I think it would get a bit a bit shit after a while as you would have nothing to reward yourself with for having a hard day at work.
2 alcoholic beverages a day will get you to 90 yrs old. Its the one thing all those old fucks have in common who live that long. And weed is good too.
Oh right just 2 drinks.
I was thinking as if it were me
Lmao. No bro I got it under control besides I’m drinking orin Swift and decoy mainly.
I gave up drinking beer back about 6 months ago or so. To make a long story, my body was telling me it was time to quit or die.
As for smoke, that’s being a tough one. Last fall’s harvest ran out not quite 2 weeks ago. Every knuckle in my hands feel like rusty door hinges, and lower back pain won’t let me sit comfortably (osteoarthritis and scoliosis). I had no idea how much weed had been helping me. I have prescribed Oxycocet available to me that doesn’t even put a dent in the pain. I can’t take NSAID’s due to swelling it causes in my ankles. In short, I’m screwed.
My wife blew up on me a few days ago and said “For God’s sake, will you please go buy some? it’s legal now.”. No! I refuse to drop $200 / week on weed that I can grow myself for pennies a day and know exactly what went into growing it. I’d rather suffer than support the government controlled cartel, but that’s issue for another discussion.
I haven’t grown indoors for years and got caught out empty handed. I’ll get there, but it’s being a real battle getting my s**t together to get my grow room up and running. Maybe it’s age but I’m having a hell of a time staying focused on the end game. I have been an absolute scatter brain the last couple weeks, constantly second guessing everything I do
One day at a time, as the saying goes.
Cheers.
You will get there mate.
You will likely have a hard time focusing on stuff because your brain nd stuff is healing.
I quit excessive drinking a while back.
I went sober for 48 days, I know to some people that is not very long but it was a very long time for me as I drank a lot, like nearly every day for a good long time, then every other day.
I’m more of a binger now a days though just not to the extent I was a few years back.
During my 48 day sobriety I felt as though I was starting my life again from the age of 14-15 (the years I started drinking) it was like wow I’m getting all my interests back what I used to love doing and stuff. I felt great for a while, but then I started to get bored. I had isolated myself from my friends as they would ask if I wanted a drink and to socialise and stuff. They called me boring. People say friends like that aren’t real friends but these are, they’re my close friends from nearly forever lol.
They just wanted me to get out as I hadn’t left the house for the majority of that time.
I know what you mean about pains and stuff.
When I was sober I started noticing pains I never had usually (I couldn’t feel them)
It’s a hard life but someone’s got to do it.
I wish you loads of luck on your grow mate and well done staying sober
Sorry for blabbing on I got a bit lost there
Thanks G.
I was hardcore. 8 - 10 beer after dinner every night for several years. 5% alcohol Canuck beer. That’s well behind me. Walked away from the beer without so much as a lost night sleep which surprised the hell out of me. I was getting pretty sick (violently) and I really think it had become a matter of life or death.
Since I’ve gone cold bird on the smoke I’m feeling the arthritis bad.
In the end, it’ll probably do me good to stay straight for a few months. Sure is phucking with my thought processes though.
That is surprising like, I couldn’t sleep properly for weeks.
Just think though, when you do finally have a smoke it will be amazing kinda like your first smoke.
You might not even enjoy it tbh though as it’s weird how things change and stuff.
Can you not try some oil for your pain?
Money is tight bro’. Long story. Can’t bring myself to put out the cash. I’m a stubborn phuck that would rather suffer than ‘pay the man’.
And yes, I’m looking forward to the day I put myself on my ass!
