The Pointlessness of the Workplace Drug Test

[RussBLib]

4. I flunked a drug test once

...and it had been several days since I had smoked the marijuana that was detected in my urine. Needless to say, I was not in any way high when I took the test, nor did I ever smoke or injest weed before going to work anywhere. Turns out it was a good thing because the company that I did not get hired to was a really bad employer. I knew a few people that worked there, and they had nothing good to say about the company's policies and safety standards. I probably never should have even tried. They got fined and sanctioned for violating workplace safety and abusing employees.

The only other time I took a drug test I passed it, probably because I drank some detox substance immediately before the test. I got lucky there, as I ended up staying with that employer for 15 years and got multiple promotions, etc.
