New Hire Process - Medical Marijuana?

New Rent Procedure - Medical Marijuana?

Just started applying for jobs at present that the school semester is winding down, and was wondering what USPS'southward stance is on medical marijuana? But wondering if they recognized this as legitimate, similar when y'all're prescribed an opiate & therefore test positive for it, or if they still recognize the federal laws regarding marijuana. Cheers in advance!

Marijuana is all the same Federally illegal. USPS is a federal job. So it's a no go. If yous have it in your system in the drug test you fail

level two

This is what I figured the answer would be. Bated from the initial drug test earlier getting hired, does USPS go along to drug examination regularly throughout the time you spend working there? I was because whether to terminate using medical marijuana until I become through the hiring process, or if I would have to stop using MMJ for good should I want to be employed past USPS. Thanks for your help!

Hmm interesting. Do they keep drug testing subsequently the initial pre-employment urinalysis?

quit long plenty to pass the drug test. me and other carriers smoke off the clock. they wont drug test you again once you get hired. but dont come to work besides faded.

level 2

This is what I'm planning, to lay off until I can get offered a job & take the examination. After existence hired I'd probably go dorsum to using it sparingly at night before bed like usual. Appreciate all the responses!

simply keep it on the low dude. plenty of govt employees need marijuana for medical reasons and use it discreetly. if you know your existence tested just get synthetic urine or a detox drink...

I'grand pretty sure they give y'all another drug test before conversion to career.
