..............if you went to jail for a non mj related charge,then lets say that you had a perscription for medical mj,does anybody know if the jail would allow you to use the medicine that was prescribed to you ?

The reason i ask is this,i went to jail a few years ago over unpaid parking tickets my wife got & threw away :dunce:,i know she was stupid but i still love her :mrgreen:,anyhow i spent friday through monday in jail waiting to see a judge & i had a script of 80 MG Oxycontin with me when they grabbed me,my dose was 2 times daily,sure as shit the jail nurse brought me my meds like clock work.

Im wondering if this has ever happened to anybody with medical mj & if they allowed you access to your meds?

I'm not competely sure, but Medical Marijuana is suppose to aid you in your sickness.... so how could they hold something back from you that can help you. Traffic violation and so forth... sounds like they wouldn't be able to keep your medicine away from you for that.. but the government does a lot of things they're not suppose to do.
-more informed people correct me if i'm wrong :mrgreen:

Not all prisons are federal prisons. Most are not, they're state-run. So, that's a very interesting question! Somehow I can't picture prison guards bringing anyone some pot (at least not on the up-and-up), but I don't know if this has ever come up.

I don't know.. I think it's a good question, though... especially as someone who wants to work for the state (a med state, by the way), and wants to get her med. mj card. I've been afraid to make the plunge and get my card in case it ends up impacting my ability to get that good-paying state job. :?

No, but my husband was talking about putting his guys on that kind of a schedule. Some of them have pretty long commutes and cutting a day out each week would help them greatly. He says it would also save the company money, going to four 10hr. days per week means servicing more customers per day, fewer truck rolls out of the building.

i would love that so much

i think i would be much more productive
When I had a particular job that ended up requiring longer hours (because the dumb fucks wouldn't hire anyone else who knew anything about aquatic importation, assholes) we went to the 10hr; 4 day work week, and I LOVED it. I'd rather make the same trip fewer times per week and get more done each day, and adding a couple of hours to the work day is usually the preferable way to do it.

Now, if state agencies started doing that, just thing, they could start servicing customers (what, they SERVICE CUSTOMERS?? :o ) earlier in the day, and stay open to service them later in the day. We'd still have a full week's worth of availability because they could just split the shifts. Hell, we might even see some going towards working Saturdays! Wowee! This could change the world it's better than DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME! :lol:

Sorry, I got kind of excited there....

I worked a shift in the Army that was just wonderful: 24 hours on, 72 hours off. So, out of each eight days, six of those days were off! Even better, most of the US folks would leave at 5 PM, and it'd just be me and a woman solder friend (no dirty thoughts, she was married), and a bunch of backgammon-playing Turks who left us to our own devices. This was at a supposedly nuke-proof facility way out in the mountains east of Izmir, nothing around but wasteland for miles and miles.

Anyway, so the sergeants and our major would book off at 5 PM, then we'd eat, play some backgammon, do some routine maintenance on a big ol' HF transceiver, then take turns sleeping until the next morning, when our replacements would arrive, and we'd be all fresh and ready to partay for our three days off.

The 4 day 4/10 work week is nothing new,its just that now that the government is adopting it the media has caught on,the 4/10 work week has been being forced upon areas of the construction industry for years at the behest of greedy management fucks,there is nothing good that can be gained by adopting this work schedule & has been used to leverage away any rights of overtime pay but still require the worker to be on the job 5 days a week.

If you work outdoors & your job is effected by the weather do not fall for this shit because it will bite you in the ass,if it rains & you cant work too damm bad,see ya on friday,if a truck load of needed material dont arrive on time & you cant work too damm bad,see ya on friday,if the tempature outside is too hot or cold to allow 10 hours too damm bad,see ya on friday.

This type bullshit also applies to factory workers,if a machine goes down too damm bad,see ya on friday.

The 4/10 work week is the 1st step in employee pasification passed off as a good thing,this does not apply to jobs where quality & job performance are not a requirement of keeping your job as is with 99% of government jobs.

The 4/10 work will not lead to better government services either, not one area of our government is honestly anserable to the people it serves,great they are open longer hours mon thru thursday but does anybody really believe that a bunch of lazy fucks who's job's are 100% protected as long as they show up for work are going to take up the added work,what we will have is government employees who are tired as hell tuesday through thursday,employees who now have reason to have even worse attitudes then they allready have & to top it all off another reason to have government services that cant be reached by telephone one more day a week,this day that the government phone lines are not in operation will only lead to chaos monday morning.

This 4/10 work week is being pushed by corporations & companies where the job requirements of the employees regulary lead to weekly overtime pay for the employee,is the savings in gasoline worth loosing any overtime pay,maybe so but in most cases it is not.

Before everybody jumps on this 4/10 bandwagon they'd better think how their employer can turn it against them,also if this issue is being brung to you by your company in hopes that the employees will vote to adopt the 4/10 schedule be very aware of clauses,these clauses are allmost allways included in the agreement & they most allways state that friday is a make up day in the event of the employees job not being able to be worked.

This generation of american worker is the first generation of worker in decades that cant expect to make a better living than their parents made & it's because of stupid shit like the 4/10 work week,once something is accepted by employers it is written in stone & will never be changed unless it benifits the employer,the next step to a 4/10 work agreement with employers is the addition of clasuses added at every contract negotiation,these clauses allmost allways have a negative effect on the workers yearly wage.
