    Incomplete coverage is exactly what blows the entire safety argument out of the water, not only does it not prevent someone from drinking, or going without sleep for 48 hours, it also doesn't catch drugs like LSD where the concentration required to affect the user is orders of magnitude smaller than any feasible test can measure.

    If a company was serious about safety and not just giving lip-service, they would use regular impairment testing -- tests that measure your ability to do certain short but complex tasks - the good ones will catch any sort of impairment -- pharmacological or otherwise.

    Cool

    Hapiness first.
    Money second.

    But then again, for us hapiness is pampering our VX - and that is not cheap.

    You could take the fancy job and use the extra cash to buy a fake "member" with "clean" sample

    Just make sure to get the right skintone!


    Again, Happines first.
    You'll do the right thing Larry.

    Cheers.

    I thank you all...& just wanted to share a few of the "high points" I left out of the original post in the interest of not wasting webspace.

    I showed up a little early, but dressed in shorts, old sneakers & a T-shirt that could best be described as "well worn".

    As soon as the GM sat down I placed my voice recorder on his desk & said "you don't mind if I record this do ya ?" He said what for ?, to which I replied : I learned a LOT the last time I worked for you guys.

    When I was let go last time, it was because I had gotten a DUI & they couldn't have me driving a company vehicle due to insurance reasons.
    I brought up the fact that there have been a couple of instances since then where other employees have had the same thing happen & they're still driving company vehicles...& he is one of them...I told him that I didn't appreciate the "double standard' of those who smooch ***** having the rules bent for them....he didn't have much to say, something about not being able to change history.

    I know there are more highly amusing bits on the recorder, but I hate the sound of my own voice when I hear it reproduced, so maybe I'll just leave it at that.

    Thumbs up

    If you enjoy what you do you never have to work a day in your life. So why do something you wouldn't enjoy? Is the money really worth the stress and anxiety and unhappiness! I don't think so! SO I give you a big two thumbs up! Way to stick it to the man! I would have done the same thing. A+

    Cece's right. If you enjoy your job,(from your post you do), your getting paid for doing something you really like. Not too many people have a job like that. That's what you call a blessing.

    First, take the job because you like it. It pays well and you get benefits. Second, take Kenny's advice. If you get caught, what are they going to do?

    Can't wait to see you at Elephant Hill.

    Peace.

    p.s.
    It fills good to stand up to the Man every now and then doesn't it? LOL

    Who, and what comes and goes from your body, is you're business. Never do something you don't want to.....particularly for money. Your life is an eyeblink long, don't waste an instant of it. (Besides,ya don't sell your soul for 40k...our detailer made 37 last year find your own path...the Gods gave everyone a talent, exploit it.) And good for you! wayne
