Working for the CIA? Drug culture and what its about

So I love weapons. Mostly just designing them not actually using them. I'm considering sending in a resume to the CIA regarding my interest in this line of work. Does anyone here work the intelligence community? or know about this?

By having a shroomery account you have already failed your future background check when applying at the CIA

Well, I'll come clean then. I'm James Bond. I'll ask M and Q and any other initials I see lurking around HQ to write you a letter of recommendation. I can't guarantee anything though, as those CIA chaps don't always listen to good old British common sense. Toodle-pip.
Really, if anyone here does work in the intelligence community, they wouldn't go about writing about it here. First off, if it were known they were hanging around with druggies, this would make them a target for blackmail, secondly if they were here in a monitoring position, they wouldn't want their affiliations known. Either occurrence would cost them their job, even if they were in a no risk position like data monitor or translator.
(And let me take this opportunity to once again say good morning to any and all narcs monitoring this forum. Keep up the good work boys and girls! )
the other question is: do you actually want to work for an intelligence service? That of course is between you and your conscience, but to help you make up your mind here is a speech from the film Good Will Hunting, which closely mirrors my own feelings on the matter:
Quote:
Will: Why shouldn't I work for the N.S.A.? That's a tough one, but I'll give it a shot. Say I'm working at N.S.A. Somebody puts a code on my desk, something nobody else can break. So I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself, 'cause I did my job well. But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. Once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels were hiding and fifteen hundred people I never had a problem with get killed. Now the politicians are sayin', "Send in the marines to secure the area" 'cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their kid over there, gettin' shot. Just like it wasn't them when their number was called, 'cause they were pullin' a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some guy from Southie takin' shrapnel in the ass. And he comes home to find that the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from. And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, 'cause he'll work for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile my buddy from Southie realizes the only reason he was over there was so we could install a government that would sell us oil at a good price. And of course the oil companies used the skirmish to scare up oil prices so they could turn a quick buck. A cute little ancillary benefit for them but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon. And naturally they're takin' their sweet time bringin' the oil back, and maybe even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink martinis and play slalom with the icebergs, and it ain't too long 'til he hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North Atlantic. So my buddy's out of work and he can't afford to drive, so he's got to walk to the job interviews, which sucks 'cause the shrapnel in his ass is givin' him chronic hemorrhoids. And meanwhile he's starvin' 'cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat the only blue plate special they're servin' is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State. So what do I think? I'm holdin' out for somethin' better. Why not just shoot my buddy, take his job and give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected president.

I think working for an intelligence agency could be very interesting. Not so much interested in the weapons aspect as the original poster, but the act of spying, so often romanticized in movies, is a very cool idea. I'm not even just talking about infiltrating groups in foreign countries. Something as simple as creating an online persona and becoming accepted in a drug based forum could prove to be an important presence, and be fun for the person paid to do it.
Advertisers are doing it by establishing identities on forums, becoming well known and trusted to the regulars and casually slipping in praise for their products. That is kind of creepy to me.
But also seems fun for the person doing it.
I'm willing to bet that if the CIA or anybody truly became interested in using these forums to harvest information, they would be actively posting and establishing an identity. There's no way any of us could ever know.

only way the CIA will recruit you in reality is if u kept the drug use on to the extent of "experimenting as a kid" kind of thing.

Wrong. The CIA is the best organized and most funded terrorist organization in the world. There is no arguing with that.
And what the fuck kind of question is that to ask on a drug forum?

To be considered suitable for Agency employment, applicants must generally not have used illegal drugs within the last twelve months. The issue of illegal drug use prior to twelve months ago is carefully evaluated during the medical and security processing. Drug abuse is one of the common reasons applicants are denied a security clearance. You cannot work for the CIA without a security clearance.

One man's hero is another man's terrorist... I read that thing about drug use and was encouraged. I'm thinking of sending my resume but I would really like to hear more about if there is an active drug culture at the CIA. I'm sure there's some festivities on 420 lol.

"Active drug culture in the CIA?" If by "drug culture" you mean international drug smuggling rings, then sure.
