For example washing dishes or manual labor are much more enjoyable with a little bit of Mary Jane.
The Mad Men from the 50's would same the same thing about "a little scotch" or "a little brandy". They also had better tolerances to it, since they drank all the time and could function on it. Their jobs were "much more enjoyable" with a "little drink".

If alcohol was illegal right now, there'd be a guy in here who LOVED to drink making the same points you're making now. "A little wine is shown to have health benefits. Just a little buzz from alcohol makes menial jobs much more enjoyable. My tolerance level is high enough so I could have a few drinks and you wouldn't even know it."

If marijuana is made legal, it will be treated as alcohol. So you should get used to the similarities now and treat it similarly. Just as you wouldn't be respected showing up to a job with a buzz, you won't be respected showing up to a job high. You won't be allowed to drive under the influence of either. You'll be expected to enjoy it responsibly as a mind altering substance. Society isn't going to all of a sudden go "You're right, marijuana isn't harmful at all! You can be high whenever you want, high five!".
