Listen, he signed on. If his religion doesn't allow him to be around it (kind of stretching things a bit here, aren't you...) then that should have been written in his contract. Who knows what anybody is going to do, whether they are smoking pot, drinking, shooting up or not on anything at all. There's alot of crazy fucks in this world. This job is a risk. He agreed it was a risk he was willing to take when he signed that contract. He broke that contract by not rising to the occasion.
I'll be the first to agree that pot isn't for everyone. Same as with drinking. But this is part of life and, part of the job to deal with it. Now if the customer were to get aggressive torwards the guy then sure, get the fuck out of there. But again, that goes for people not on anything as well as people who are on anything. How many homes you been in that fucking reeked like shit or equally as bad, Indian food? Offends the hell outta me but I did the job and went on with my life.
As for second hand smoke making him stink like pot and the cops pulling him over, bullshit. Anyone that knows anything about weed knows damn good and well that it clings to the person smoking, not passersby. Same thing about being drug tested. Unless he is in physical contact, he won't piss positive. I have buddies in the Navy piss tested all the time when they return from leave. We used to be smoking weed and they would be drinking. Never, not once, did a positive happen.
The guys pussied out. He got scared and thought he should tell his Daddy. The guy needs to grow up and do his job. It is impossible to go to only safe and secure jobs where there is nothing happening. Some subs may be into Goth. Nicest, non aggressive folks you could hope to meet, but because Goth is against his 'morals' he can just turn down the job? Bullfucking shit. Even installs is a mans job, not a pussies job. Stop trying to defend the guy. He fucked up plain and simple. I hope for his sake he learned from this and goes on with his life a bit more tolerant of others that he has no choice but to live in their world. What makes it bad is, they have to live in his world too. But the religious, moral, legal excuses, and thats all it is, is bull and everyone here knows it.
