While at Tech, I would get home from work, have a little and enjoy the flavor, and get right back to work, refreshed and revived, often well into the night. Just enough for attitude enhancement. Not enough to be seriously slowed down. Worked for me.
Hi again, TJ. Thank you for saying such a nice thing. Yep, guilty as charged of overachieving. I'm not sure where that came from, but I think it was my parents, who were the same way.

Glad to know there are plenty of smokers who are high achievers. You're obviously very accomplished and well educated. We have an interesting mix of both overachievers and unders here on the boards.

I found weed didn't help my brain power or motivation, but I may not have been smoking the ideal strain. We were aiming to get Indica-heavy strains for medical use for my sister, and I partook of those and then wanted mostly to lie around and giggle and do little else. I went clean when school started in August and haven't had the nerve to try smoking again, but that may change. I confess I would love to feel the effects right now, just for pure relaxation, but I'm also struggling with that ethically since the ethics/honor agreement I signed at the beginning of the school term had a very specific clause about no illegal drugs. Not sure how I shall resolve this dilemma yet.

Nice talking with you!

I'd like to share a personal horror story with others in Georgia to see if anyone else has been hit with similar tactics. I was recently kicked out of a 15 year Georgia Tech career as a research engineer. Word apparently got around that I was a smoker and a gang of co-workers would do things like cough, rattle their keys, leave suggestive objects around for me to see, or sniff or suck air through their Rating: 5
