The fact that drug tests are normalized for jobs is fucking insane
The fact that drug tests are normalized for jobs is fucking insane
and no one irl even has the decency to agree with me because it's so fucking drilled into the culture that these fucking BuNsInNesSes have a Right to do this because it's a bSUsniEss. like oh yeah they have an office building so they definitely get to analyze my piss because they say they want to. sick fucking freaks.
preaching to the choir a bit on lemmy (or i would hope so at least) but still
You're viewing a single thread.
Like ok maybe drug testing someone who is driving/flying a bunch of people around…I kinda get it. Safety of the public etc.
But drug testing at an office job? Come fucking on. That’s political face. Nothing more.
Do companies really drug test office workers? I'm in the US, work in an office and have never been drug tested by any company I've worked for in the last 10 years
They are moving away from it. As they should. Most alcoholics and drug addicts are people that have the money to do so. Meaning they already work somewhere and haven't been tested in ages. At least in my observation. There are the homeless with those issues, but I don't think they are the ones applying to most jobs that are being talked about here.
But CEOs have a lot of responsibility. That's why they deserve the high salaries. We can't have them coming into work and dropping the stock price by making huge mistakes that effect all of the employees and stock- holders. So, yeah, drug testing.
Yes but that drug testing is to ensure that they keep their cocaine levels high enough. It draws concern if it gets to low and god forbid they gain perspective instead of acting like a drug addict looking for coins in the couch cushions.
