When is the last time you applied for a job. Employers already do a drug screen. I just did one 2 days ago for a Tech support job. It’s not like I’m going to be messing with any hazardous stuff. I’ll be answering Internet questions on the telephone.
And, yes, they test for alcohol. A few years ago my fiance almost didn’t get a job because they found evidence of alcohol in her test results. But she didn’t drink. She’s diabetic, and the ketones from diabetes mimic alcohol.
So yes. Employers can test and reject people from employment based on legal substances they put in their bodies. And I’m ok with that. But I am not OK with government kicking down doors to stop people from smoking an evil plant. I don’t do it, but I don’t care if someone else does it.
Admittedly rather long ago.

Which employers? What percentage of employers?

Are such tests capable of distinguishing between occasional, social drinking and "hard" drinking?
And I’m ok with that.
I am appalled and truly astonished. What has become of America?

How come cops, teachers and those in Congress are not randomly drug tested? How come those who perform the drug testing are not randomly drug tested?
