    I have heard stories on GC about people being denied a job because they have a medical card.. I'm from MA so I'm not 100% sure on the laws out in CA but this may be something to keep in mind.

    How would your employer find out? I've never seen an application that makes you say if you have a card or not.. And if they ask just say no.

    Thats what Im thinking, they won't find out if I actually tell them. Im just wondering what I'll need to bring, I got a fucked up back cause of the years of playing football, I have some X Ray's laying around somewhere but tbh I really don't know where there at. Another question is, do they mail me anything?

    If you already have a job then I wouldn't think there would be a problem. Getting one on the other hand they can deny you for a bad piss test, card or not depending on the type of job you are getting. I won't ever get one because you can't own a firearm. Basically get treated like a convicted felon.

    That's the law in Nevada if I'm not mistaken

    I was going to get my card, but I found out it stays on your record, and can possibly make it difficult to find jobs in the future. I dont pay much more than I would at a dispensary, and think I would actually lose money if I got a card.

    It stays on your medical record, not your permanent record. No one can access your medical records without your permission. Your doctor won't even know since he wasn't the one that prescribed it. None of the information in your medical record can be shared, and if you have a job, just pass the drug test, it's not that hard.

    I think about 75% of the "patients" in california have fraudulently obtained a mmj card.
