failed drug test, DAC, and future options

That is crazy. What they do on their own time as long as they don't come to work high? Sounds like a warehouse job. Look I'm no saint, but I decided 2 months before I started this job that I wasn't smoking anymore dope because I knew of the random testing. Not only that I used to drink all the time, at least a 6 pack a day. Taking this job has made me a more responsible father and husband, saved us a whole lot of money, and I enjoy my life more without the stuff. If you know that you are subject to testing answer me this, why fill out the app? It's not a slip. You didn't fall into the bowl. My friends still smoke dope, but I know what's at risk if I were to do it? My family means too much to me to take that gamble.[/quote]

I'm just looking at page 1 of the Rules/Regs/DAC forum & I see FOUR THREADS on the topic of "Failed Drug Test"

Some people just don't seem to get it!!

You Use?? You Lose!!

Hopefully, it will be before someone gets hurt!!

It is getting harder and harder to get a job if you smoke. Back in 82 when I was signing up for the Service, there was another guy there also signing up. The recruiter asked him did he ever smoked a joint? He said Yes, 3 years ago. Just for answering yes 3 years ago, he was denied entry to the service. No test just from word of mouth. 95% of the jobs now randomly test. So it hard to work and do drugs, but people still do.

95% of jobs randomly test? Ummm, interesteing statistic (unless you are speaking of trucking companies.
