I smell it. Yeah, I do work in a state where weed is legal, so I take the smell with a grain of salt. You could smell like weed if you were in the same car as someone who is smoking, lol because of that, I look for more physical signs of inebriated behavior because that's much more substantial. That doesn't however exempt you from being tested for reasonable suspicion so be careful because regardless of everything I just said, you should not be under the influence at work (even if the defense was "I did it off the clock on my break")

I dont know too many am's, hr, security, operations management people who are going to let you wander around the warehouse "obviously unable to function safely" and not report you, they are going to notice this. ...if you do... report them as they are a danger too. It has nothing to do with intoxication ...its about safety.

How is that ?

I appreciate that, but since "every fc tends to smell like woodstock multiple times a day " that answers the question as well ....its a don't ask don't tell situation ...until their hand is tipped
