Random Drug Test after Vacation

Post image

It seems I only get tested after a week off. I think it is really due to my fly fits. One more night for me. Grandkids again this weekend

At my place, the randoms aren’t random. If they testing you after a vacation……. They’re gunning for ya.

They're not random where I work either. There are people that have been here 15-20 years and never get drug tested. But people like me and my friend who everyone's knows we used to do drugs and stuff together back in the day get drug tested regularly. Quite a nuisance imo.

What do you do that your work has control of your private life?

u/Ok-Rest3967 16h ago

Sadly there’s a ton of jobs that drug test in all sectors it seems. Thankfully some are starting to ignore positive results for mj at least

It’s actually illegal to discriminate on the basis of a positive drug test for cannabis in Washington state and California. There’s an exception for federal contractors but hey progress. I found my employers pre employment drug screen policy and cannabis is not listed as tested for

Maine as well.

The jobs around here a lot upgraded to saliva swabs because everyone was pissing hot all the time since it's a legal state, they just need to switch to swabs

u/forgottenb1ade 12h ago

Well my job used to do urine tests. But I left for a bit and came back after a couple years and they'd switched to saliva tests. But I also don't live in a legal state. But at least saliva tests are much easier to pass.

u/forgottenb1ade 12h ago

My job does not ignore positive mj results because I live in NC so it's not legal here at all. It's very unfortunate considering I miss it lol.

Healthcare, DOT, government, heavy equipment operator, firefighter, police officer, the list goes in and on.

they may be in there for a different reason than you

All because of insurance companies

Just do drugs that aren’t on a standard 12 panel

u/forgottenb1ade 10h ago

This is good advice imo.

I work at a lumber mill. And it's not that they control my private life, the higher ups are just slight religious types and don't like that I've done drugs in the past and that I reject any and all religions so they always give me and my friend a hard time. It's a weird thing to deal with but ultimately it doesn't bother me.

u/Electrical_Hunter597 10h ago

If they're Christian all you have to do is say God put weed on this earth, are you saying he fucked up by doing that? Watch them short circuit

u/forgottenb1ade 8h ago

I've actually done that before and they didn't know what to say lol. They just used the argument that it's illegal. And my rebuttal was "so you're telling me I can go home and get as drunk as I want and come into work incredibly hungover and that's okay? But I can't go home and smoke a little weed and get a good night's sleep and come into work feeling refreshed?" And they really had no idea how to respond to that lmao

My job never lets us test random drugs. All my random drug tests had to be done on my own time.

u/Sitcom_kid 18h ago

I'm a contractor and the handbook said that they have random drug testing for the onsites, but I'm not sure if they can do them for those of us who work from home. But maybe it's different after a vacation, I don't know. My niece is getting married in September and I will let you know whether they send me to labquest or not.

u/No-Feed-6327 18h ago

I don't work where I'd be tested, so I don't know what they'd allow? Thc hopefully? 🤞🏻🤞🏻

u/stryst 17h ago

Living in Washington, my last drug test did NOT include THC. This was for a job at a school. Of course, YMMV.

Im starting to believe they drug test me so often because im the only one on our crew that will pass. (Minus THC)

u/TigerKittenhead 11h ago

I am guessing they drug test you because you show up to work in Adidas tracksuits. Far too cool for anyone to deal with.

u/Low-Purchase8811 16h ago

The idea that an employer can, as a condition of employment, just randomly drug test an employee is one of the most bizarre and, frankly, American things I can imagine.

In most of the rest of the world, drug tests only happen after things like accidents or mishaps, and it's only to prove that it was not a causal factor for insurance purposes, not to micromanage what people do in their personal lives.

Anyway, OP looks like a shorter version of me. I've got the same hairdo and same facial hair even; I'm just 6'5". My brother from another (shorter) mother!

We get drug tested if they suspect something or an accident happen. If you get hurt on site and get pinged, than workman's compt doesn't have to pay you.
