In one of the latest signs of the times, an increasing number of security clearance holders or those working in national security are having to create a new criteria around who they date – and that’s checking to ensure their new love interest doesn’t have a marijuana habit. The discussion boards at ClearanceJobs and popular forums like Reddit include the tales of the Washington modern missed connection. The topic generates questions on both sides of the equation. Some uncleared professionals are asking if the person they dated is blowing smoke up their arse with their claims that dating a marijuana-smoker is a no-go for their national security job. Some national security workers are asking if the government really cares about the drug habits of the person they date.
