FBI Need Potheads To Fight Cybercrime
An anonymous reader writes "The rate of cybercrime is growing and growing, and law enforcement is struggling to keep up. The FBI is in the process of beefing up its headcount, but they're running into a problem: many of the hackers applying for these jobs have a history of marijuana use, and the agency has a zero tolerance policy. FBI Director James Comey said, 'I have to hire a great work force to compete with those cyber criminals and some of those kids want to smoke weed on the way to the interview.' However, change may be on the horizon: Comey said the FBI is changing 'both our mindset and the way we do business.' He also encouraged job applications from former pot users despite the policy."

Ah, yes, this is something I have been meaning to talk to you about. You see, one of the terrible, terrible consequences of smoking The Evil Weed is that you get these vivid delusions ... If you didn't do that, you would realize that you actually lying on a filthy rag in a basement somewhere, while rats eat away your shrunken genitals.
