I know a woman who was a brewer for a small local craft brewery. She was offered a job for a major craft brewery owned by A-B and they required a hair sample. So she shaved her head and donated the hair to Locks of Love before taking the job.

Yeah, they do that on purpose. You need to be on something to manage working here

It is funny that the two professional industries that have the reputation for not drug testing are public accounting firms and law firms.

In advertising there is an expectation that every creative is smoking pot.

Brewery testing for weed is
Tested when I got the job, never again in my 15 years here. Assume it would be required during an accident but I’m in an office setting. Still won’t risk it.

It was pretty funny when one of the owners tested positive for marijuana.
I used to own a little pipeline services outfit and I got banned from a couple of my own jobsites because I hadn't "gotten around" to taking my test. Not permanently banned, just until I pissed clean. Hey, I was a very busy man in those days.

I thought drug testing was only done on peon employees.

Wrong. A large percentage of very successful people smoke pot at least occassionally. Doctors, lawyers, business owners, half of the NFL, Etc...

That's kinda what I'm thinking now. I haven't had to take a drug test for a job in over 20 years.

It’s 50/50 in my industry
Some do test, some don’t
Some do test, some don’t

My only issue with drug testing is that pot stays in your piss for 2weeks-3months (depending on how much you smoke and your body fat percentage) while the local pill head pisses clean after 3-5 days. Potheads tend to be good people, pill heads will rob you blind. Obviously there are exceptions, but Ill hire a pothead all day over any other type of user, including an alcoholic.

Be a journalist.
Nobody is interested in your personal life or habits.
But I don’t drink or do drugs anymore so it’s moot

I love the weed threads, but I hate the comments from the Baptist that have never tried it.

My company doesn’t test for it, but my buddies company only does ransoms every once in a while. And it’s a mouth swab someone told him your mouth only has THC in it for like a day.

More for me.

I took a drug test when I started but have never had a random in 8 years. I would have passed one at any time anyway. I'd probably smoke a little bit but my luck I'd twist my ankle in the office the next day

Self employed here but never cared for it.
The worst part is that I know for a fact even with all the chain of custody being correct, there are in fact false positives and false negatives.

I own my company, and it is highly encouraged.
