My monday story....

[Zcustom]

So I employ drivers who have to take random DOT drug tests.

about a month ago my best driver came up for a random. I tell him it's time to go pee in the cup but then my corporate office say "Wait! We're switching labs."

Ok, no problem. Last week, I get the new forms and info and call him again. He goes after his shift friday and all is well, or so I thought.

Turns out he "altered" his sample, now I have to fire him.

Not only am I losing my BEST driver but he's a really good guy who has 2 young kids and jobs are scarce.

This afternoon is gonna be fun!

also, I know he's reaping what he sowed etc, blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda. Bottom line is a really good guy/employee is losing his job cuz he made a bad choice, that's always hard.

So that's why the huddle hasn't been graced with my presence this morning and I'll be in and out a lot ........(wait for it...)

Also I spent the weekend at the beach having wild monkey sex, so I have that to fall back on

Are monkey rentals higher at the beach? Do they have a weekend rate?

I like the part about the monkey sex.....o wait u said something about an employee?? he ok?...........

[Skew]

They don't give a second test? Or offer treatment?

[Zcustom]

astronomically high

which means my monkey wore a spacesuit while taking bong hits

[PanthaSan]

Do you have any options?

Like offer him to go to a program and then he can get his job back....

[Zcustom]

Nope, my company is 87 years old and it acts like it:(

[cookinwithgas]

The guy knew he was getting pinched and didn't get clean? Not too bright.

And Skew I think it's more about trying to cheat the test, not that he got caught from what he is saying...

[Zcustom]

Yeah his sample was 105 degrees and they took his body temp immediately which was normal

THis is what frustrates me the most, I told him a MONTH before he actually went. Could have been avoided.

Ultimately he's made his bed etc.

guy was top notch though

[The Saltman]

sux man...

[Zcustom]

meh, what can you do?

wanna talk about pubes more?

nah..im over it...

[blackcatgrowl]

Want some irony?

My company is VERY liberal about drug/alcohol use. They don't test. It's not even brought up. In fact, we drink wine/beer/liquor at company social events including AT the company's main HQ. I'm pretty sure one of our senior managers comes in stoned every day.

But due to some nagging health issues, I can't do poo. I've been as clean as a white sheet for several years. Too ironic.
