“You have to tell patients who may not know this stuff that it’s great that you can get marijuana as medicine but you’re really in a terrible predicament,” said Allen St. Pierre, executive director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, known as NORML. “If you’re tested in the workplace, or they come to know that you have one of these cards, you can get fired.”

In WA at least, you just have to prove to the place that tests your pee (disgusting invasion of privacy but I digress) and if you are legally on medical cannabis then your results will be clean and your employer will never even know. Medical records are supposed to be confidential, anyway.
