Too Buzz or Not Too Buzz…?


 


Been on the wagon four months,


Tis’ company policy, not mine,


Actually have felt altogether quite fine,


Wish though I could just tonight decline…


 


I just got the urge,


And am on the ultimate verge,


Know that if I was found out,


Would be singing my funeral dirge,


At least at this job, still I would like to splurge…


 


All I have left is maybe enough for one or two hits,


Man, this is really the freakin’ pits,


The desire for same is driving me out of my wits,


Granted it is a short drive, but I would rather get high,


Than have to eat grits…J

It is time to flush that hit or two down the toilet, Ed. Just the knowledge that it is there will most likely be your demise. Yeah, I hate the company policies too. Pot is the unfair one also, since it can be detected for 3 weeks. Long after the buzz has left, the test still shows a positive. It seems so wrong. We could be on vacation, not even due to go to work for two weeks and one hit or perhaps two would be enough to lose us our job a week after we returned. I quit because of a job and to be honest I really never missed it. I think it was just my dislike of a corporation telling me how I could live in my private time that really bugged me. I had to look at the other side of it though. Did I want to be able to pay my rent and eat, or did I want to go on feeling angry that my personal time was being manipulated. I opted for the rent and food part. Some decisions are not easy and still, I really have issues with that test. Until they are able to test for a positive at the time that we are working that happened during the time that we are working, I feel that it is unfair and a blatant disregard for my privacy…but breakfast and a roof over my head sure does feel good.
Take care,
Sherry
