You're probably not alone, but is your job that stressful or what? In any case, many people would smoke on the job if they could.
 
I don't smoke weed but I smack a pack a day of cigs. They say working from home makes it hard to avoid bad habits. I thought that too until I landed a job offline, thought I would finally smoke less. Upon entering the workspace I saw everyone smoking. It's absolutely prohibited in the workplace by law here. Was a shocker lmao, someone was good with the local authorities.

You can't get away from some things.

The last time I smoked weed I actually thought one of my mates was funny - and he really isn't. So it kinda made me hyper. But I've taken it and it's made me feel want to just chill out.

It is true, working from home is bad for productivity, if I manage to gain enough income to hustle online as a full-time job, I'm going to somewhere like wework and rent a small office there.

For me, smoking weed is slowing me down, and its also destroying my short term memory, so no smoking during the week for me...

Knowing my weaknesses makes me better...
 
Depending on the task at hand, weed can be a very nice helper.

That being said for me:

- Never in the morning (fatigues me very quickly)
- Only in the afternoons if the tasks I need to do require some creativity (writing, solving a programming issue, programming design, business brainstorms)

Yeah id say its pretty stressful, not much has been going my way lately with working online and just general life. Id say weed definitely helps me stay more focused especially during work.

I wouldnt say it makes me more productive than just being sober, but it does help me stay more focused on what i gotta do. Makes me tunnel visioned in a way lol

Totally agree with you! If i smoke in the morning i just feel dead all day, but in the afternoon when im working id say it definitely helps in keeping me focused, and going throughout the day.
 
Hahaha, dude I feel you.
But it is addictive due to the state of mind when you code, I want to migrate to vapes and choose an oil special for productiveness when coding. It makes you think ways you wouldn't do it on a normal state. But is it good? bad?
I have stopped smoking for seasons and come back doing it on other seasons, there are always PROs and CONs of doing it or not doing it. That depends on your productiveness or how creative right?

I do have a vape that i hit throughout the day as well as have my normal smoke break every 3-5hrs. I recommend a vape if you like to smoke.
From my experience i wouldn't say its a bad thing because it keeps me focused on whatever i got to do, and weed is the best stress relief lol.
There is downsides tho, id say i have a addiction i smoke everyday. Without it at work, i find it hard to get work done sometimes.
 
It will only make you lazy and addicted. I would not recommend it.

It only does that to you if you're already lazy. I've got a friend who smokes and gets things done, not the same in my case.

Yes it varies from person to person, also it depends on the weed itself, it's not the same if you grew it yourself, not the same if you bought it in a legal shop and not the same if you got it from a local dealer.
Ends up in mess most of the times anyways.
 
Yes, I used to smoke while working but later i understand weed make me lazy and lot of different thoughts. So avoid weed while working, enjoy when you are free. Yeah, But it is definitely different to a person to person...

There are a few high functioning stoners. Probably not too many of us, but we exist. I use cannabis daily, I’m cutting down now. But I would say I had a successful year in IM all enjoying a nice buzz. I started using cannabis medically. Now it’s a little bit of both medical and recreational.( more leaning on recreation:)) I honestly think it just depends on the person.. I would stick to sativa vs indica, sativas are more uplifting, as Indicas often leave you glued to the couch. Most importantly always use responsibly..
 
I recently quit smoking cigarettes after a long run, now I only indulge in thc flower and vape. I wouldn't necessarily say it makes me more productive, but it opens up the creative juices and I'm also usually pretty focused.

IM was the perfect career, because I've been a marijuana consumer since around 14 and I know if I hadn't lucked out with IM, it's a good chance I would of had an issue with drug testing for an employment.

So hats off to IM & cannabis.
 
It's good to know im not the only one like this lmao
I believe smoking weed is what you make of it, so it definitely varies person to person. As long as you're getting your shit done and not sitting around watching tv all day, then theres no problem smoking weed for you.
