I used to smoke pot all the time but I don't anymore. Either way, everyone has alawys thought I smoke a lot of pot but I really don't and I always give off this 'pothead vibe'.
In previous jobs I have had, even when I wasn't smoking pot, people would ask my other co-workers how much pot I smoke and I think they would wonder too.
How can I stop giving off this vibe? I am a really chill guy who doesn't really worry about a whole lot but I am always laughing at stuff.

Start by getting a haircut. I'll bet your hair is long and untidy. If you have a marine haircut, you look like a marine, right? Well, I bet you have a pothead haircut. Then, frankly, I would work on things like focusing on people and listening to them. Frankly, I'm reading The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People again, and I'm amazed, again, by how helpful it is. You might try reading it, especially the part about really listening to people. That will help people realize that you are focusing on them, not mentally adrift somewhere, which is what they're thinking when they think you're a pothead.

When people ask me if I want to buy some pot I get a haircut. Works every time.

I would think you need to confront it somehow. Why do folks think they have the 411 on you? Do you talk abt parties? Do you laugh at Pot Jokes? Add to them because you have insider info.?! Figure out what you do that gives permission for others to see you that way....Pot Head/etc.

Haircut, shave, wear clean clothes. Stop wearing hoodies and baggy beans. Wear nice shoes. You know groom yourself... Also, change the way you talk.
