And if you're about to hire a tweaker who's gonna go to work high af and on his fourth day with no sleep then you probably don't need a piss test to tell.

Exactly. If the drugs turn out to be a problem, then by all means fire the person. Like you would fire someone who can't do their job for whatever other reason.

Today I went to the pharmacy to get my crazy pills. The pharmacist is this cute super tidy really smart and nerd-yummy woman. No line so small talked her about Xmas. In this part of the south people are super chatty. Digression: When I first left the south and went out west it took me forever to realize that people don’t at least throw a good morning or how ya doin at EVERYONE you pass when you’re about. Anyway, she asked me if they fed us a special meal at the restaurant and I’m telling you by baby Jesus I ain’t never told her where I work and I do NOT get insurance through the job. This little honey went home one day, thought about me, and googled my sexy ass. I might be getting some high iq pussy juice on lil Hawk yo.

Companies get tax cuts if they drug test too.

Cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, all out of your system in about 48 hours btw.

So it's both fascist, and it doesn't work anyway because it's super easy to work around? Great system.

It's both but it is indeed a ****ed up attack on the people like everything else in the drug war.

They test for benzos and adhd drugs too so you have to have proof the doc signed off on it and get hired while crazy

They pay better, and you don't have to deal with the public as much. It's a bit more labor-intensive, but I honestly don't mind the work. I used to manage a warehouse, so I'm generally more comfortable in them for that reason. Plus, I kinda prefer the industrial atmosphere, and I like learning and working with machinery on the job.

That's the plan. Plus, my current job wants to keep me on for one day a week during my probationary period at my new job "just in case" I change my mind. I told them I'll be working a 40-hour week and my general manager asked me if I could stay on for one day on the weekend. My internal monologue was: "Sure, I'll totally take a fallback plan."

I've tried being stoned at work before, I don't like it much. Marijuana gives you a bit of time distortion, makes things sometimes feel like they're taking a lot longer than they already do. I don't want I don't want an 8-hour day at work to feel like an 18-hour day at work. Plus, I don't like dealing with customers when I'm stoned. High me isn't like that, high me is more like: "Lets listen to Gustav Holst's The Planets suite again!" And there is no way I can concentrate on boring **** like SKU numbers, operations, and customer service when I'm thinking about music like that.
