i use a pen to be discreet, and save it for late nights when people crack open their fancy whiskeys. i also don’t drink (asian flush)

doing a decks worth of comps in one evening is a lot more tolerable when i’m stoned. don’t get so high your work suffers!

Also don't get so high that you make your co-workers suffer (and you know what, this goes for the drinkers too, perhaps more so).

Do it discretely obviously. I don’t do it anymore but I use to when I know my schedule is clear or if I’m just designing away.

Well if you’re still wfh and can handle work and yourself high then I don’t see an issue with it. Pre-covid I would hit my pen at lunch time, and personally it just helped me be more creative at work. I think it’s all about your intent and tolerance really

I think it depends on your agency’s policies and where you are located. Weed is not legal here yet so I don’t think anyone would during office hours. But in Colorado, California, etc. ...I’m not sure.

As a junior, it’s not a good way to start your career. Have some rules for yourself.

Oh, the good ole “grumpy boomer vs. entitled Gen-z” debacle. Just in time for the showdown.

Damn. Lol. Yeah, nah.

My last therapist keeps coming up in my mind. I left her when I moved to a new area before COVID dug in and frankly it felt like leaving a girlfriend. She also disclosed in the final session that she was a member of AA and knew several of the people I occasionally discussed from the rooms. Her knowledge of the program certainly built trust with me early on, but it has been two years. I discussed it with my current therapist but she’s still in there. Any advice?
