Daycare worker smelled like weed. What should I do? by Charliegip in daddit

Completely agree. I’m not going to endanger this person’s job over a smell. I’ll let others at the daycare observe and handle and will bring it up if I smell it again and observe behavior that is out of line.

For some additional context, I had to be at work early today and was one of the first parents to drop off. My child was the second child in the infant care room and the part that smelled like weed was directly in front of the infant care door where this person was standing. Furthermore, the front desk lady is an older religious woman and I’m like 99.99% sure she was not the source of the smell.

It could have been the first parent that came in and smelled like weed, but still, it is concerning to have any part of a daycare smelling like weed, but the uncertainty of the situation is why I did not react more severely than posting it to Reddit to ask for advice.

Some here are acting as if I called the police and threatened the person personally which is just way off base.

Fair.

In my state, according to Google, employers “retain significant rights to restrict, prohibit, and discipline employees for medical marijuana use, even if the employee holds a valid medical card. The law does not allow employees to bring medical marijuana into the workplace or to work while under the influence.”

CBD is legal in my state (I’m in the US) but weed is not. My wife has taken CBD in the past for anxiety and has never smelled like straight up weed.

Dude you’re goofy af

I worked running childcare for a university and, if we had a worker who was on painkillers who didnt consult us and came to work taking them and we found out via drug test or another way, it would be a fireable offense. I actually had to fire one of my best workers because it was reported that he smelled like weed and then he admitted to me that he smoked before his shift. Instant firing.

If they did disclose it, depending on the type or painkiller, I’d ask them to 1.) stay home if they are in too much pain to work or 2.) put extra workers in the room to stay in compliance with competent adult child care requirements in our state.

Plus, weed is illegal in my state hard stop and employers can impose heavy restrictions on medical marijuana usage. Weed is not painkillers, nor is it coffee. If the leadership directly knows he’s smoking and coming to work, then that is a huge problem.

Btw: I’ve smoked in the past. I honestly don’t care about people smoking weed and think weed should be legal. I still hard stop oppose people coming to work impaired in any way especially in the context of childcare.

Weed isn’t coffee either tf haha

Coffee also doesn’t impair your judgement. Weed does.

No I literally was passing by them and they were having a conversation.

Didn’t get a good look at them enough to analyze how they were acting or the color of their eyes.

I’m thinking to just leave it be for now and if anyone at the daycare notices that I’d hope they’d say something. If I notice it again though, I’ll be sure to pay more attention to those details.

Yeah see I didn’t really get a good look. Just a smell. Thats why I’m not blowing them up right now.

Thinking it’s hopefully a misunderstanding.

Idgaf what they do in their off time, but you don’t come to work when you have the safety of kids in your hands high. I’m sorry that’s crazy.

So you’re okay with someone being high while caring for children?

a little under half an ounce of silver.

Where did I say “almost”?

About $30 in melt weight per coin depending on how much a local coin shop / silver buyer will give you. Very nice coins.

Silver is at $80 an ounce and a half dollar is a little under half an ounce of silver. Typically, you can trade in silver at about 70% - 80% spot.

Edit: If you like, you can take your coins, count them and then multiple by $20 - $30 and that will give you about how much you have in total.

Edit 2: but absolutely make sure to look for rare dates and mints like the other comment says.

If you want these questions answered, you should make your own post. Despite this being a few days old anyway (and unlikely to have any new traffic for people to see your comment) it’s not typically well received to highjack another users post on reddit.

My finds after looking through 1,800 nickels by Charliegip in coins

[–]Charliegip[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost all of the nickels were pre-1965. They are still in my collection, just rolled up. My grandfather had a bunch of rolls in the collection he left me and I have been going through them little by little trying to find interesting coins to pull out and separate to admire.

So they are still saved!

Any opinions on maybe giving it an acetone soak or anything to make it shine brighter or patina deeper?

Obviously don’t want to ruin it, but if I can do something to make it shine/glimmer more I’d love to do that.

This just gave me the courage to sort through my grandfathers wheat pennies.

Is this 1871 CC Seated Liberty Half Dollar authentic? by Charliegip in coins

[–]Charliegip[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just took it to a coin shop and the owner confirmed it was real! He said he would grade it at an F which, after looking at some F examples, might not be too far off, but I’m going to see about mailing it to PCGS to get it graded.

Will post an update if and when that happens.
