I wouldn't say at all that LSA gives one of the least mind-fucking or lightest trips!
Mentally it usually is quite confusing for me, like I'm learning things anew and looking at the world anew but minus the magic LSD brings with that.
Physically I just feel absolutely high or spaced out. Those are very accurate words for what it feels like to me, and adequate enough to be sufficient.
This is all with standard or medium doses or deviating only slightly from it - rather a lighter dose than a heavier.
I don't even think it matters what kind of work you do (apart from being left alone for hours on end without being disturbed or expecting any tangible result of your work), my answer is: bad idea, don't do it.
If you operate heavy machinery or work with other things that are delicate, even people in management who might not be charmed by trippy behaviour then I would especially advise against taking LSA-containing seeds.
It's a sliding scale for the rest. I have gotten stoned when I worked as a night administrator in a hotel, and used their nitrous meant for whipped cream a couple of times. But all of that I could afford to do, I knew there was nobody to check me and it wouldn't decapitate me or risk much. I have also been high on GHB, phenibut, benzo's, amphetamine and dexamphetamine (latter two very low doses) all on separate occasions and apart from acting a little funny perhaps, there have never been any complaints about my quality of work. I have dozed off for a minute from a little bit high dose of GHB but I didn't pass out, it was for a minute so no KO dose really. My colleague was like WTF though for a second but got over it very soon. I reconsidered my actions after that though and I still don't believe I fully realize what I risk (losing my job) when they would find out something like that.
With the sliding scale I meant that what you can take depends on the job requirements or job description. It also depends on your previous experience with the drug, the type of drug (psychedelics are generally too unpredictable to take a dose of that is significantly far over the threshold... a low dose acid could conversely work well as a nootropic under certain circumstances) but uppers and downers and pain-killers basically work relatively predictably. Another factor is what kind of person you are. Some people can generally handle hysterical situations with a head full of acid while other people don't know their heads from their asses sober. And there are many people in between, in that spectrum.
A good question I think Xorkoth asked was: why would one do such a thing? Let's make that general: why take a drug at work?
One reason could be internal mental conflicts that can shift from 'screaming to be resolved' to 'doing impulsive and possibly self-destructive things', there is a kind of desperation there but it's not always apparent and can be masked as something else.
Another reason could simply be boredom. Some people are so bored they consider these kinds of options... the job itself can be repetitive and boring, or the person could be used to attention, vast amounts of information they are interested in and interesting and new things happening all their lives. It could be because of their lives or it can be because of themselves. For me personally, I think life without my mental and emotional rollercoasters, that I cause myself, feels like unchallenging, easy and boring. Since I was little I have performed very well at a lot of different things without putting in any effort. When I started encountering things I had to put in all the work for I avoided them and rationalized excuses, always getting into arguments with my parents instead of them sometimes just putting their foot down.
I've been granted the gift of freedom, but often I feel so free I just don't know what to do with it or how to use it wisely. It's not a substitute for wisdom, for applying yourself or having discipline or ambition at all.
When I started tripping and my second trip ever gave me a full ++++ non-abiding awakening experience from mushrooms this sense of freedom exploded and increased exponentially and the positive and negative things about the way I am became much more positive and negative. It took years to piece myself together again but something about that awakening experience never went away since that day and I'm glad all of it happened and I wouldn't take it away.
Sorry for getting so off-topic but it may illustrate well how someone can come to be, working under the influence of psychotropic drugs sometimes or having the inclination to do that.
