    In a few years, this won't even be a debate. Doctors will just prescribe it if it's the effective treatment. Those who find relief with it, and the people who love them, will wonder why it was taboo for so long.

    Of course, I don't think cosmetoligists should be doling out medical advice, but if she said "oh, my Dr prescribed legal-medication-x for my migraines and it's been a lifesaver, you should ask about it" would anyone have been offended? So really...it's only "wrong" if you're in a state where it's illegal (and that will change in the near future so what's wrong today won't be wrong in a few years).

    ^This. Plus most people think of pot and automatically think of smoking and how harsh the smoke can feel. And no one really wants their 14 year old inhaling smoke, regardless of what they're smoking, right? But there are other ways of administering it. Lots of people vaporize it and the wax is becoming a lot more popular. Both require inhalation but are far less "harsh" than smoking it.

    What would you do?

    First I would preheat the oven to 350 degrees, 375 for a dark no-stick pan. Combine the eggs, brownie mix, vegetable oil, and stir till well blended. Fold in the "special" ingredient. Spray the pan with a non-stick spray. Pour into pan and bake for about 35 minutes.

    You should use a double boiler pot and heat the special ingrediant to 120F for 45 minutes first, then add it to the mixture after straining the green leaf matter.
    This \m/

    Come on you guys, get real! Sautée the special ingredient in butter first,. :smile:

    Sauteeing isnt a good option because you need time for the THC to volatize (@120F) and dont want to burn the butter.
    that and you could end up vapourizing most of the thc out of the blend. boiling over water is the best option

    Yup, can then be used to drizzle over pasta, salads, chicken, or even frozen for later!

    Speaking of which, I always preferred using it in Lasagna as opposed to Brownies... just saying...

    Personally I tend to only tip people who go above and beyond...otherwise their standard wage is what they get paid for - doing their job in a mediocre yet acceptable fashion.

    If they exceed that expectation, they get a tip...if they don't, they don't.

    That's just me though, my wife hates it.

    Wow that's a jerk move.

    Most servers earn 2.13/hour before taxes are taken out.....that's not a living wage.

    People who cut hair, paint nails, etc usually are paid at least minimum wage.

    things are different in ontario. minimum wage is $11 no matter where you work.

    if i had a waiter who made that little i would definitely tip (and i still do in ontario unless the service is godawful just because of the stupid expectation of it)

    They're providing a service, and usually their wages are lower. It is proper etiquette to tip, if you don't want to than don't go out for services.

    It's people like this that really piss me off...
    Hey, when I was a server, I only made 2.13 an hour. Now, if I was lucky enough to work 40 hours a week, my check would only be 85 bucks (and that doesn't count for taxes or anything)

    So, I obviously relied on my tips.
    Lemme guess, you're one of those "well, why not get a real job?" people, eh?

    This thing is still movin'?

    If your daughter "paid" (I remember something about a certificate?) for her mani, then I wouldn't worry about going back. And if the manicurist telling your daughter about MJ makes you unhappy, you don't need to bring her there.

    I agree that it's an inappropriate (not because of what it is, but because of the "controversy" surounding it) topic for the workplace, especially with customers when you don't know how they'll react, but to blow it out of proportion and contact the owner or complain or confront her just seems... silly.

    Have the discussion with your daughter, spell out how you feel about it to her, and move on. That's really all you can do at this point.

    i rarely do

    but what i dont understand is why they dont just incorporate tips into the price of the food. the system is screwed though i guess theres not much point discussing it

    see above response. ontarians get proper wages. the us (im assuming your american here) has a pretty stupid wage system when it comes to the service industry
