I think steve's at it again. :lol:

She gets people who come in on court ordered testing and the smell of chlorine to the max. What these people do is pour chlorine all over their hands before they come in. When they pee in the bottle they pour the pee all over there hands and back into the bottle. This contaminates the sample. My friend just smiles and finishes the test. She writes down on the test paper work that chlorine was detected. She also takes a reading on the temp of the pee. If it's low she just smiles and finishes the test. She fills out the form that the test was void due to the temp of the pee. All these failed tests go back to the employer and it's up to them what they want to do. Some people who come in are required to pee in front of the male or female tech. Some are required to give a blood sample. Some people are sooooooo fat that they have to put a 4 foot by 4 foot litter type plastic box on the floor and the person just stands there and pees then they collect the sample. kc0iv

Now, something that could've made him ask me for it would be the fact that I was still in driving school, in a driving school truck, etc. It could've been nothing more than a scare tactic to "keep me straight" later on after I graduated. I've never been asked to show it to a DOT officer again after that, but I keep it in my truck anyway, along with my long-form DOT medical. No idea.

The drug screen is a full size sheet of paper stating where it was done, when, by who, etc etc.
