I have an interesting thought that crossed my mind for some crazy reason.... Whatcha Think of this......
In our community there is a weight loss clinic that has literally hundreds of people who go there.
Been around for 20 years!!!
This clinic is doctor supervised, and the person is monitored medically and gets labs done through out. The person can go here and the doctor will see the patient on every fourth visit, ( once a month) You see, the patient goes once a week to be weighed and pick up the prescription of amphetamine, ( type and dose varies according to patient) This clinic gives out only 7 pills at a time, so the patient can come back every week for the "checkup and weighing...."
Ok, here is the deal... This is a popular clinic.... I know many many coworkers from several places who go here. They are technically "under the influence of a controlled substance" but have no problems in job performance or otherwise, ( They claim it gets them through a busy 12 hour shift though.. QUICKLY.. )
... I am sure it does....(Hummm...)
Any one subjected to a random drug test would be cleared on the bases it is legally prescribed by a local doctor.
Now my thought, what do you think about nurses working under the influence of amphetamines????
Concern?? or no big deal since it is legal.......
Thanks for reading.............
