[QUOTE="pickup, post: 870968"] To the original poster, I found a link to the "Connecticut decriminalizing marijuana". Here it is:[URL]http://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/politics/123381848.html[/URL] . From my reading, it seems to me that [B]Possession[/B] of less than one ounce of marijuana has been decriminalized, not the usage of marijuana. Just as possession of alcohol is legal, being under the influence of it while driving a vehicle is still a big no no and I would say with a great degree of certainly that caught driving while under the influence of marijuana is also a big no no in the eyes of UPS and the law. As for whether you test positive due to inhaling at a weekend wedding or during your lunchbreak makes no difference if you fail your urinalysis test. UPS will not tolerate testing positive. If they were to put you back on the road anytime in the future and you are involved in an accident that involved in the death of someone else and you test positive again, the lawyers for the dead person can easily take a big financial bite out of UPS's hide. There, no judgements involved in the answer. [/QUOTE]
