And...in Michigan you cannot get a CPL license to legally carry a firearm if you have a Medical Marijuana license to use. You must choose which is more important.
Just because something is commonplace, does not mean it is right.
In Colorado, for example, it is illegal for an employer to terminate an employee because that employee engaged in any lawful activity off the employer's premises during nonworking hours unless the restriction 1) relates to a bona fide occupational requirement or is reasonably and rationally related to the employee's employment activities and responsibilities; or 2) is necessary to avoid, or avoid the appearance of, a conflict of interest with any of the employee's responsibilities to the employer.

I'm sure his contract was quiet clear in being drug free and the company being able to place drug tests on him.

It is important to note that THC can be detected in blood and urine streams for weeks after cannabis use. Just because it's "in your system" doesn't mean you're "high" at that moment.
So you could be operating heavy machinery, be called off to take a drug test, fail it, and would have in no way put anyone at risk because you haven't used in three weeks.
See the problem? The testing procedure doesn't accurately assess what it is they're trying to determine.

Let's say a potential employer of yours--vehemently opposed to extramarital sex--made celibacy a condition of employment, and signing a contract affirming such was a condition of employment; further, that violation of the contract (i.e., someone finds out you're sleeping with a neighbor down the hall and rats you out) is grounds for immediate termination.
