MEDICAL MARIJUANA CARDS DO NOT OFFER LEGAL EXEMPTION TO JOB
APPLICANTS
If Robert Bendula had his way, he would be working within the
Department of Justice, but that's easier said than done.
After a work accident in 1994, Bendula, of Tracy, is now one of about
400,000 Californians who have medical marijuana cards. For Bendula, he
smokes between 3 and 5 grams of pot a day to help alleviate his pain.
It doesn't, however, change the difficulty of finding a job where drug
tests and screenings are required.
