Things like this make me go huh?

Why would you hide it in a box at work? Why would you take anything that is contraband, and remove it from your person to stash, and with the plan to then put it back on your person later.

That is two extra times that you can be caught with the contraband? If it is in your pocket leave it in your pocket! They don't do pat downs of burger king employees do they?

I guess there goes the possibility of promotion to fry boy.

I need to buy kids meals more often...

Why drive myself crazy trying to be normal, when I am already at crazy?

I was 2nd shift a production control supervisor in a manufacturing plant, I got a 'new' employee once that I was told to 'keep an eye on'.

This guy went from head of purchasing down through several levels until he hit pallet-jack jockey on 2nd shift...one night the reason became obvious.

While I was shooting the bull with the plant superintendent - who was an extremely well endowed woman about 5 feet tall... he came up and injected himself into the conversation.

The pic on my ID was about ten years old and looked a lot more surfer d00d than supervisor which was the topic of conversation - 'this guy' pulls his ID from the plastic thingie around his neck to show us his ~ ~ ~ and an 8ball of meth goes flying out and lands on the super's right boob.

I had to turn away I was laughing so hard, she played it cool and talked to him for another few minutes with the big rock of gack in a baggie balancing just that close to heaven.

She finally leaned forward and it fell off, she picked it up and asked if he 'dropped this'...

...Yup - he thanks her and puts it back in the ID case!

10 minutes later he was a guest of the El Cajon PD.


Never saw anything so STOOOOOPID in my life!!

You're giving WAAAYYY too much credit to Burger King's hiring practices.

I would have expected this to be included in the happy meal.

I once worked in a factory with a guy who smoked, but didn't like cigarettes; He preferred pipe tobacco. But he also didn't like fussing with pipes. So the solution: He always carried a pouch of pipe tobacco and a pack of rolling papers.

It never got old to see the reactions of a manager who happened to walk by during break time as he was rolling one.

WTF

You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!

It is interesting that you can get busted for owning drug paraphernalia. How do people buy their pipes/bongs/whatever to begin with?

It's a tobacco pipe.

yes up until you load it with something illegal then it becomes "paraphernalia"

Too bad this wasn't in Seattle. Would have been a non-event with the police. My home state needs to get a little more enlightened.

OK, so let's take the "drug criminality" out of the mix. Suppose, instead of reefer, it was, say, a perfectly legal little bottle of booze like they have in hotel mini-bars. And the douche hides it in a happy meal. If I was the kid's dad, I'd still want to kick the guy's ass. If I was his boss, I'd still fire him. As for the cops - well, how about reckless endangerment of a child who might ingest an intoxicating substance?

If I remember correctly, Chong ( cheech & Chong ) was charged and convicted for paraphernalia some years back. Not sure of all the circumstances surrounding the case but in his case it didnt matter that nothing had been smoked through them.

[normiss 801]

For selling bongs over the interwebs.
Into states that had laws against that.

Interesting movie about it too.
I think he's in business growing medicinal now.

The recent (over the last 10 yrs or so) up-tick in enacting paraphernalia laws (and broadening the definitions thereof; e.g., now a clean, empty sandwich bag can be "paraphernalia") are just another way of strengthening the draconian, Victorian-morality American drug laws rather than relaxing them to bring them in line with modern social attitudes and lifestyles, all the better to maintain the funding for, and jobs within, the vast police-prosecutors'-courts-prisons complex. I've been in the system one way or another for 35 years, so I'm speaking from first-hand observation.

(Not trying to send this into SC; it's just the natural progression of the thread.)

Point well taken.
And yes, definitely fire the guy.

Sold for "Novelty use only". Mhmmm.

I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.

[normiss 801]

I thought they were sold "for tobacco use only".

I think I read that somewhere once.

Considering how much time I've spent as (among other specialties) a criminal defense attorney, I think you greatly misunderstand my post, as well as me. I was discussing the legality aspect from an academic perspective. It's how it's done in the classroom.
