  • What would you do?

    Say you're a delivery driver, and a customer orders 2-3 times a night almost every night, when he calls to order he is always so baked that it takes him 10 minutes to order his food, when you ask him how he will be paying he always says cash. When you get to his apartment, a cloud of pot smoke hits you in the face and he has his drugs sitting there in plain view, he hands you a credit card even though he said he was going to pay with cash. So you have to stop and call the store to give them the credit card information. In the 6 months you have been taking this guy his food, he has never tipped you. Would you call the police and turn him in for doing illegal drugs? Or let it go?

      It's hard to say just why he's smoking pot - he could be a harmless guy just getting his mellow on or even trying to alleviate pain.
      Responsible use of medical marijuana doesn't include a cloud of pot smoke hitting a delivery driver.

        Now, I don't have a problem with people smoking it.. As long as it's in moderation, but this guy gets completely baked every night. Plus I live in Alabama and it's not approved for medicinal use in this state. If he had the common sense to at least hate the dope and paraphenalia, I would not say anything. It's not just the fact that he stiffs me every single time I go there, it's also the fact that he takes so long to order one sandwich and the fact that I have to take the time to call the store to give them his credit card info because he is so waisted that he can't even give me the right payment info when he orders.. I think that if he can afford to smoke pot almost every night and order Johnny Jims 2-3 times a night, he should be able to afford to tip.. Plus that pot smoke is harmful for my unborn baby.

          Karma sometimes needs a little nudge or help. these stoners need to be reminded that the "frequent visitor" to his front door needs a "reason" not to turn him in ie. tips are Real nice in that situation. but unfortuneatly most do not think in those terms cause they are too stoned.

          at worst call in to the cops anonyomusly esp if he has THAT much just sitting out in plain view. sounds like a low level dealer or some snotty semi-rich kid.

          most of the ones I deliver to sort of "get it" and I am bribed (not weed but a decent tip).

            I posted this on a delivery driver board and they just laid into me.. Saying that I "ruined" his life,
            I deserve a good old-fashioned beating, karma was going to get me, calling me all kinds of names. Saying that pot should be legalized, it wasn't any of my business what that guy was doing in his own home

            I did not ruin his life, he did by doing illegal drugs, how do they know it wasn't karma me turning in a serial PITA and stiffer, it doesn't matter if it should be legal or not, it's currently illegal, he made it my business by inviting me, a stranger into his home and not having enough brain cells to hide his dope.. I noticed that the people on the other board who were the most vicious towards me are ones who say that they smoke pot too. I told them that if want to continue to be stiffed by a slacker stoner then that's on them.

            Oh, and here's the kicker, the ones who called me all kinds of names and said I should have my ass kicked are the ones who said they considered arson, paint balling a house and "putting an address on their hit list" for not tipping, all of those things being illegal, it's illegal to even talk about those kinds of things, even if you're joking. And they have the nerve to berate me for legally turning in someone doing something illegal?

              Turn him in.

              Seriously, it's not just the pot smoke that's risking your baby, it's you driving after being hit with the cloud of it.

              I looked up ways to use medical marijuana, and found a wide variety of options that don't involve clouds of pot smoke; and are far more efficient. More relief per unit of marijuana.

              Even simply using a hookah or an inhaler to ensure that most of the smoke goes into the user's lungs is helpful. Or make a tincture from a safely edible solvent. (The site I used suggested alcohol, which implies that teas don't extract the THC, but it used a small amount of alcohol for a large amount of relief.)

              Anyway: if he's using it medically, he should be doing so more responsibly.

              And whether he is or not, he has -zero- excuse to put another human at risk. Much less two, one of them below the age of being able to decide for themselves.

                Exactly how is *considering* going to the cops "ruining his life"? The fact that he openly does the stuff and leaves the evidence in plain view means that Darwin is gonna to step in sooner or later, no matter what...

                If someone is legally on medical MJ -- which he is not, as you said -- that's different. He's literally just assuming immunity, and the potheads who apparently WOULD have backed you up if he wasn't a fellow pothead are just being hypocrites. Tipping or not doesn't even enter into it.

                    Hey, y'all.

                    We aren't talking about if weed should be legal or not. We're talking about if someone doing something currently illegal ought to be turned in to the cops.

                    Let's not get the thread shut down, please.

                        ?
                        which driver board did you post this to??? PM me if you do nto want to publicly reveal which one. I am hoping it is not one of the ones I lurk on since this situation has not been posted.

                        doing stupid things out in the open you get what you deserve.

                        and I hate to say any delivery driver that smokes weed is asking for trouble esp if they get into an accident or other situation and are required to be piss tested ASAP or within 24 hours. why oh why do these idiots prepetuate the stereotype. we have enough trouble and image problems as it is.

                          It's Pizza Delivery Drivers on Facebook.. The people who ripped into me are the ones who openly admit to currently smoking pot.
