[quote:Worlddragon 69458201:MV8zMjY3NTA0XzU4NDA4MzA2X0UxRTA5MkVE] Morning NODOOM! I really think everyone should be allowed to smoke weed at work, but that's just me. I'm stoked because I made you something, and I got some $$$$ so I can send it to you tomorrow! Yipee! Have a heavenly day! [/quote]
Original Message
A public worker caught smoking weed while on duty was punished too harshly and should be given his job back, a court ruled.
Gregory Linhoff was fired from his job at the University of Connecticut Health Center when he was caught enjoying a spliff in his state-owned vehicle by a police officer.
He was arrested, but charges were later dropped.
His employers said they had no choice but to sack him, as it would send a bad message to colleagues if he was allowed to remain.
But the state Supreme Court disagreed, and said Linhoff’s exemplary disciplinary record meant he should be given a second chance
