Most employment guidelines are federal so they don't give a fuck about legalization,
Just buy fake piss and be prepared to use it.

Unless they do a hair drug test

Interesting. So even though it's no longer illegal you think workplaces still test for it?

Anyone out there had experience with this recently?

I'm not really bothered about lawyering up and worrying about discrimination etc, just more curious about how you can make a decision on employment about a substance that is legal.

Employer Summary: Under a new law, employers hiring in D.C. may not test applicants for marijuana usage until after the applicant receives a conditional offer of employment for the position. Along with D.C.’s recent “ban the box” law on criminal background checks, this new enactment may require employers to adjust their application and hiring processes.
On August 14, 2015, the District of Columbia “Prohibition of Pre-Employment Marijuana Testing Act of 2015 ” was published in the District of Columbia Register and formally went into effect. This legislation – which makes permanent a temporary measure enacted on an emergency basis in late 2014 – further emphasizes the need for employers to review their personnel policies in response to the nationwide movement to legalize marijuana for medicinal and recreational use. Paley Rothman’s Employment Law Group has previously written about some of the issues that the increasing legalization of marijuana poses for employers.
The new act prohibits employers from requiring prospective employees to submit to a drug test for marijuana usage as part of the employer’s application process until after a conditional offer of employment has been extended. The act’s prohibition is unequivocal and does not provide for any exceptions. Accordingly, even if the position that an applicant is seeking involves safety (i.e., the operation of heavy machinery) or security (i.e., the need to obtain a security clearance) concerns for which the applicant’s usage of marijuana might be a disqualifying factor, the applicant cannot be tested for marijuana use as part of the application process until the conditional offer is extended.
