One of the software houses that I worked at acknowledged that they did not
give drug screenings because "we wouldn't HAVE any programmers if we did" -
they were not here in CA...  I was wondering though, what happens if someone
tests positive and they admit to using medical marijuana, which has been
legalized here in CA?  I'm surprised that this has not hit the litigation
circuit yet.......

btw, I've switched from coffee and sugar five times a day to sugarless tea
twice a day.  Read somewhere that it's the cheapest and one of the strongest
anti-cancer prevention treatments there is...

Allen, (ready to call it quits and head for the keg of Amstel light in the
back room)

My drug of choice is coffee so I can pass a drug test.  Actually,
(not to start a total war here) I would probably have a real
hard time looking for a job now.  I have some personal reservations
about the amount of drug testing done in our society.  I was
hired just before that went into effect here and during that job
hunt, I wouldn't consider applying at places that required it.
Of course, now, I would have a hard time finding any places to
apply because just about every where I know of requires it.
I think you need to do one to work at McDonalds now (a job I
believe necessitates some drug use to endure).
