    I thankfully live in a legal state, so my boss is pretty aware I smoke off work hours. Then again, it’s a company of like 5 people, so transparency is pretty essential there.

      do you also tell your boss what kind of laundry detergent you use? How is it any of their business what you do in your free time?

        It isn’t. I’ve never been this open in any of my previous jobs. I wouldn’t say it’s normal. In this rare case, we all actually enjoy our time around each other and work as a proper team.

        This was absolutely a diamond in the rough situation.

      same, my state is Washington St

      people will randomly talk about now, even at work

      just yesterday a guy was laughing about the edibles he ate recently, out of the blue

      like that guy is not the typical type you’d expect to add it to the conversation around the water cooler
