WTF happened to managing your employees based on "performance"!??
Used to be you could go into just about any big store and find at least ONE person that knew the whole place... inside and out. Most times, it was the stoner kid. *shrug*
Nowdays they have "We're a Drug Free Work Place" posters in every store and nobody has any customer service skills and nobody knows wtf is going on or where to find anything.
I medicate 24/7... I don't have issues with employers and drug testing because I've refused to work for anyone like that for years. I have issues with my employers because I'm an Aspie... lol completely different story.
Seriously though... I don't care if the person is a heroin addict, as long as they show up when they're supposed to and do their job properly while being safe about it. Employers shouldn't either.
More ignorance... *sigh*
Stay Safe!
Because of the testing and "drug free"(in quotes because yeah come on whos kidding who) workplace, all that are left are the too old to be working still, or mentally challenged. Yeah some are done by kids, but their too busy on their phone to help you. That workplace can hire the mentally challenged and get paid by the Gov. for doing it. Hire 10 p/t oldtimers at minimum wage instead of one at a living wage. No skin off their ass if it takes 3hrs to get a 20min oil change and the oil plug stripped. Or if you stand in the checkout so long your bread molds and the milk sours. You'll be back, cause their the only ones around. The stoner did his job and quick so as not to make waves and risk exposure.
I too smoke 24/7, have a current and active union card and have only worked at one place that tested(worked 2wks before test came back) I failed. Luckily I'm at a place in my life now where I choose if I want to work and for whom. Yeah a full time gig would make life a little easier but I wouldn't be as happy
Grow on,Fred
