13. Changes are happening slowly, on a case-by-case basis, in Washington

For example, a friend who works for a local police department in Pierce County (a highly populated region just south of Seattle) showed me an unpublished, inner-office memo that told employees they were changing to a "don't ask, don't tell" stance regarding marijuana use by employees, and that their drug tests would no longer check for THC (marijuana's active ingredient, for those readers who may be unfamiliar).

I've heard two other accounts of employers essentially saying, 'We're not sure how to proceed, but for now, we'll stop testing for it as long as we aren't given a good reason to regret that decision.'
