Are You A Pothead? The FBI Wants You!

August 6, 2007

The FBI is desperate lowering its standards for job application requirements, accepting potheads individuals who beam up have had marijuana issues:

FBI drug standard lowered for hiring

Under the FBI's revised drug policy, applicants are disqualified if they have used:

• Any illegal drug, other than marijuana, within the past 10 years or used marijuana for more than just "experimentation."

• Marijuana within the past three years or for a substantial period of time.

WASHINGTON — Aspiring FBI agents who once dabbled in marijuana use won't be barred from getting a job with the elite crime-fighting agency, which has loosened its drug policy amid a campaign to hire hundreds of agents.

The bureau's pot-smoking standard, in place for at least 13 years, was revised after internal debate about whether the policy was eliminating prospects because of drug experimentation, said Jeff Berkin, deputy director of the FBI's Security Division. The policy disqualified candidates if they had used marijuana more than 15 times.
