I’ve been high in most jobs I had, every now and then at least.

Not when driving a taxi, but we used to get insanely high for the night shifts at the taxi dispatch call centre where I also worked with the younger coworkers (<35) I had. As long as you get the necessary shit done, why’d anyone care? The night shifts were boring as fuck, you’d have like a few to a few dozen calls an hour. Meaning that mostly you’re just having to browse the web while waiting.

And Finns genuinely couldn’t even tell when I’m high as balls, the willfull ignorance in Finnish social interaction is quite strong.

I don’t, I just couldn’t imagine many work places where you’d work in a team or interact with clients or customers or coworkers where this type of thing would be accepted.

But ah, Finland ✅, and night shifts ✅, and younger crew with little to no management around ✅, still able to perform a not so crucial task requiring not a lot of brain power ✅. I’m all for it dude. Have fun while working, that’s the bomb. ❤️

I’ve seen this in upper management. Dude has zero f to give. I mean like drugs removed them.

Me: Mai dude building is on fire Dude: it’s fine only 16 flights of stairs. I’ll wait out the rush.

He never had sense of urgency.

Often if you can make it past the first interview you don’t get caught unless a workers comp claim gets filed. The place I work we had people * in training* come in smelling like weed, a few others smelling like booze, and one came in very obviously high on coke. From what I remember the only one who got fired was for cursing someone out. Even past that, we’ve had a couple of members of leaderships who were alcoholics who regularly drank on the job, and there was always at least one person smoking in the parking lot.

All depends on employee tolerance and employer need, really.

And which field was this? What kind of workplace?

I’m not really saying this can’t happen. Just that I couldn’t think of a place myself where this would be tolerated. Not where I live, at least. 😅

Work Reform

!workreform@lemmy.world

Create post

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

  • All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
  • Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
  • Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
  • We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

  • Higher wages for underpaid workers.
  • Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
  • Better and fewer working hours.
  • Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
  • Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
