Heh. I feel that way about opiates. Mmmmm percocet. The oxy thing was the first time I ever felt a flicker of compassion for Rush Limbaugh because that stuff has got to be MAD fun.

Mmmm. Morphine. Nom nom nom.

How many Buffistas did I call while doped up on morphine? Hands up!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

So unless you walk in on someone indulging, there is no way to prove that someone is working under the influence. Instead we get to suffer under their abuse.

Yeah, but the abuse is what should get them fired.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

This is also my brother's plan.

Yeah, I think I'll be utterly debauched. I'll be eighty and they'll be asking my family "how's gramma doing?" and they'll be "If you find her, let us know. Last we heard she was chasing the dragon with rent boys in Vegas."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But what if what they really want to know is how well you conform and obey authority?

Me too.

Part of me is considering going to HR and asking hypothetically, what to do if there is suspected drug use. There have been too many people recently who have commented on this person, but she does not have any on site managers or supervisors - no one to monitor her behavior.
