Pretty much. I mean I understand where they are coming from as I wouldn't want some asshole being hopped up on shit and causing himself to be injured, but common sense kinda dictates that it doesn't work that way and then there's the whole aspect of what you do outside of work...

Good friend of mine was installing auto glass for a while, cut his shit open and went to the hospital and got stitched up, without even claiming workmans comp he had to get tested, pissed positive for pot, the doctor asked him "would it surprise you if you tested positive for marijuana" he chuckled and said "nope" and the doc said "okay, because I've got to send this back to your employer and wanted to be sure." Anyway, he got nothing, paid for his trip to the hospital himself and then got fired.
