It isn't only about safety. No business owner wants an employee in any position who is using drugs. Would you hire an accountant who tested positive for meth? Would you hire a truck driver who tested positive for crack? Would you hire a sales person who tested positive for heroin? No, you would not.


all of that only implies to people who dont interview the persons they are hiring. know who the fuck youre talking to and youll know if theyre on drugs or not.


:shock:

Reciprocity doesn't make any sense. You aren't paying him.


You're "paying" him with your work. Dollars and cents aren't the only commodities. I'll bet the peons at Enron would've like knowing they were helping fuck a lot of people's lives up .... some of Bernie Madof's employees too I'll bet.

Exactly. The idea that an employer is doing the Worker a favor should be abhorrent to everyone.

if youre a boss and you cant judge peoples character then you suck at being a boss and you deserved to be fired or go under if its your company.

im so sick of paperwork proving everything. as if nobody can talk to someone and figure anything out. people arent fucking robots, and even if you get a guy who doesnt do drugs he might start just because his boss is a thickheaded dumbass.

Lots of bad thoughts in this thread, unsurprisingly.

this is so true these days. its not a joke at all, this is the mentality of this generation of bosses. it happed in less then 10 years too... i remember back in 03 bosses were dying for good help, and the workers had lots of pull. we were treated like humans, and paid a living wage.

a decade later, wages have gone DOWN, and our experience means a fraction what it used to. everyone is replaceable, no matter how long you have proven your worth.

its disgusting, especially after i see so many boss/employee combinations that failed. all that time put in for nothing... lost profits... but they dont care, because they think everyone is the same so they think there is nothing they can do about it. everyone is just an idiot and there is no good help out there :(
