Drugs/Alcohol test

What do you do for a living? Why the need to do the testing?

Ooh, ours does this. They would have a predetermined list of numbers then count people as we came in the door. If you came in as they got to a number on the list, they'd test you ?

Amazingly in 6 years of working there I was never tested. Just as well, as my bladder always takes hours to respond to the request of a test !!

KB3 - I work for a nuclear energy company. Given that the folks on the power stations have to be sober and alert, they test them randomly and to promote fairness, test the head office staff too.

? It's the same reason I always feel paranoid coming through customs at the airport. Even though I know there's nothing illegal in my suitcase I'm terrified they'll open it up and all my clothes will somehow have magically converted in heroin ?

I work for an Oil company, I have been here 2 years so it's probably my turn!

The frustrating part was having to wait in HR for the results and not get back to my desk!

Needless to say - I got the all clear!
