Well I am around bad stuff everyday, as I have worked in a hospital for 10 years now. If I let that scare me, I'd have gone crazy by now.
Ebola is in the USA. Does this frighten you?

You don't work while you are high do you?

"Oh, man, now I can't remember what's in this syringe...I think the doc said it's one of them '-ine' things. Morphine? Saline? Visene? Duuuude, I'm so baaaaked."
Why is that a stupid question, there are loads of impaired hospital staff including doctors and nurses.

He's been dishonest about his contact with others. The stories about how much contact he's had with others are so varied, its hard to know how to take it all. We live pretty close to Dallas, and I've told my wife not to take our kids out unless its very necessary, at least until we have more info.
It is a fair question but, your sensitivity to it is noted. :AMR:

I understand your concern being in the area. I'm not in the area. It would be jumping the gun a bit in my case I believe.
Exactly why anyone wanting to travel from areas where that is prevalent, they should be willing to be held in a 21 day quarantine before travel to ensure health. Thats how it ends.
3 weeks is nothing compared to the lives of many. Common sense is gone anymore.

How, in a thread about being afraid of Ebola, is asking me if I'm high at work a fair question? Drugs were not a part of this conversation at all. It's a troll question.
No it isnt. It should be concerning that some healthcare employees are bombed at work especially those that support drug use being legal.
Seems a healthcare employee whose job it was to find out knew this guy had been around ebola, yet somehow "forgot" to tell the other staff about it and he was sent home to infect others.
Maybe they were impaired and why they forgot.
Ebola patient told hospital he had been to Liberia before he was sent home the first time.

Well then I suppose anyone who doesn't think alcohol should be illegal ought to be viewed with suspicion.
Maybe. Or maybe they are under staffed and working way too many hours like our hospital. Or maybe the employee is just a poor employee.
Nah, let's just assume she was high.
Anyway, what does this have to do with me?
yes, if they smell of it at work :up:
You mentioned that you have no fear of disease and that you work at a hospital, you brought up your job and you regularly talk about your drug use here, so i thought it relevant.
Your overly defensiveness about it is noted.

I'm not defensive. I just think it's a stupid question. Next time you find a question to be stupid I'll assume you are being defensive about it.
I did just post a thread the other day about how my marijuana use is nearly nothing now days and you have participated in that thread. I guess you took that to mean I only do it at work now? I'm sorry if you misunderstood.
Which tells me you are concerned about how your openness with drug use affects other people and or you are in denial about and feel the need to defend it.
You talk about it so much that its concerning which leads to what i asked you.
Tom Clancy did this all back in 1996 with his bestseller Executive Orders http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Orders.
Iran attacks with Ebola, shortly after a plane is flown into a joint session of Congress in his previous novel.

That is one of maybe two threads I've ever started on the subject in the 7 years I've been on this board. Otherwise I've commented only when others have brought it up first. There are people like musterion that bring it up no matter what I'm talking about. You do that a lot too, though not as bad.
But thank you for completely hijacking knights thread on Ebola and turning it to weed again. I can't help but talk about it when I try to drop the weed talk with a simple, "stupid question. Next," and you insist on keeping the topic of drugs going. It's really concerning. I came here to discuss Ebola.
You have made a point of telling TOL about your proclivity towards the use of dope, you then go on tell us about your employ at a hospital, having someone pose a question, whether you go to work high seems fair under the circumstances. If not then the answer would be no would it not? You seem a bit sensitive to the question for someone that has openly expressed their use of drugs. It did not seem trollish to me at all...it was just a question.

You and her seem to read my posts enough to know that I occasionally use marijuana but must skip over the multiple posts where I have stated that I have never gone to work high. What's stupid is that anyone would think that has changed when my most recent thread states that I barely do it at all anymore anyway.
