Steve brought up an excellent point. If this is a DOT drug screen,how is it that he isnt at a doctor's office getting it done? Sinse when did they just give ya all the stuff to do the drug screen,and ya bring it back to the doctor's office when ya get done? You have to have your driver's lisence when you go up there anyway. If it isnt a DOT drug screen,and if its for Joe Blow's cafe,then,it may be done some other way,but if,and being a DOT drug screen,I dunno. It sounds fishy to me.

If he does it on weekends he's likely to take a few buds on the road to "get him by" until next weekend. When a person is tested and found to be positive it's proving that he is a drug user not just a weekender. Illegal drug use in not tolerated in this industry ANYTIME!

you can't tell if it was from a man or female.

only if the female donor is pregnant, then hormones are detectable in the urine. (wife's an RN). Also a random test requires you to produce a sample within a maximum of 4 hours. Anything over 4 hours constitutes a refusal. Also DOT does require a photo ID and to empty all possessions out prior to the test. A simple email to the Feds might just be all this "company" needs to be put out of business...

I know this is a fairly old thread but here goes anyway. First off, I am a nurse and can attest to the fact that it is possible to get a urine specimen from a willing donor and use it as your own. I've seen nurses abuse the very drugs that they were trusted to give to the pts and get away with it time and time again. In the end, they always end up hanging themselves and usually at the expense of others.
One nurse inparticular that I can remember used to get her daughter to give her a specimen and she'd then keep it in a double ziplock bag against her body until she was tested. She always managed to pass the drug test. I've seen places that test the temperature of the urine and some that don't. I've also seen places that make you give the specimen in front of the ones giving the test. No privacy at all! That definitely leaves no room for anyone with half a mind to attempt cheating on a drug test.
People drive crazy enough these days without taking drugs, throw in a few drugs and you've really got a mess!

I think by DOT Law with testing the Temperature has to be taken and written down and then Sealed.

Yeah. DOT requires that a temptature is to be taken. Among the driver's license,and signature on everything.

Man...i cant believe the chick didnt report him or let someone here report him. If you are still reading this thread, If in the future something terrible happens and your BIL kills someone....go ahead and take some of the blame yourself. You could have stopped it. Sorry the "hes family" excuse doesnt work. Him being family should make you want to report him more.
