How do medical marijuana patients fare in the workplace?

Irvin Rosenfeld (Stock Broker) gives expert video advice on: How are you treated by law enforcement officials?; What has your relationship with US Drug Enforcement Agency been like?; Can you travel on commercial airlines with your medical marijuana? and more...

I do not believe that employers should have the right to fire employees for medical cannabis, if they are in one of the states that has a recommendation from a physician. I don't think they should be fired either way, in any other state for that matter if they test positive. What a person should be fired for is if they notice impairment. Even operating dangerous machinery, now that is something that is a little different, it really is. To where I use it on a daily basis, I get no euphoric effect, I drive. What about a guy operating a huge crane? That maybe could get euphoric. That could cause a problem with the crane, an accident at work or harming somebody, something like that. There is a fine line, but this person might be someone who doesn't use it during the day, only at night time at home. Well then they have no right to be fired, only if they do something. It's got to be a real excuse, something really wrong that they do that would jeopardize somebody else. And then, I would hope that that person if knowing that they could jeopardize, I'm pretty sure that person would not do it knowing that they could jeopardize themselves or harm someone else. And so they would be rational enough to use it correctly.
