I'm wondering if the wife's marijuana use was a passive-aggressive sabotage of the employment offer.

She didn’t yet have the offer when she ate the brownies.

BUt that's the deal. To not get the job, she intentionally consumed weed but made it as "Oh, I didn't MEAN to!" thus the ua would deny her the job.

I'm glad employers drug test for obvious reasons, because it is also the first simple assignment by the employer. If an employee can't follow those directions, then they aren't worth hiring.

You also have to allow the possibility that some people simply aren't that bright and think what they do is immune from the cause and effect of the universe.

I don't think there's any reason to think that. We don't know how long before the interview was, maybe she assumed she didn't get it by then. In any case, why speculate on something like that? What difference does it even make why she ate it?

It's looking likely North Dakota will legalize this November.. the relatively low population with a relatively high number being young men in the oil fields make it a unique situation where a red state will legalize... that will make it much easier for me living here in South Dakota to get my supply.. though honestly I go through it so slowly it will probably take me 6-8 months to use an ounce. My point being, mj use in my area is fairly high as there's ample wealth here and the jobs pay ok... thankfully they don't do random drug testing where we work.. if they did they'd lose around 25-33% of their employees.

I don't drink so at Denver prices it's probably cheaper than the equivalent amount of drinking.

She ate them a week before test, that was quite clear. "wife decided to do MJ brownies days before drug test" Now that part of "Days" says it's most likely a week. as the poster posted on the 16 of July (That's a thursday) So, it could be construed that she did it a week earlier.

People were speculating on her sanity for even doing it. This is nothing.

You sure seem to be defending her stupid decision.

Why is that ?

No matter the timing of specific events, it is STUPID to do any illegal drugs when job hunting. You could get asked at any moment to do a drug test.
