Yes. A lot of women like to think that it can't happen to them if they behave correctly. It's a really dangerous attitude to have.

Ugh. All the men who pull out the whiny "what do I need a signed consent form now?" crap are THE WORST. My response is usually "if you can't figure out when you have consent and when you don't, I think a signed consent form is a great idea!"

I replied too quickly and didn't read the whole thread. If you want to look thinner for your trip, there are ways to safely drop water weight. People poo poo losing water weight vs. fat but it actually does make a difference. Take an odorless garlic and papaya pill combo. You'll pee a lot but unlike laxatives it

No. Don't do it. Your body already knows how to cleanse itself. That's what the intestines/colon/anus and kidneys/bladder/urethra are for! Any weight loss will be temporary and it would be dangerous to deny yourself nutrients and calories for that long. When I had an ED and was restricting a lot, I got dizzy,

It's pot that has a long half life and tends to show up in drug tests. They aren't very effective for finding hard drugs. If someone is so badly addicted they can't stay sober for a day or so to pass a drug test, they probably won't make it out of the interview process anyway.

We have at will employment in this country so it's easy to fire an irresponsible employee whether they're a stoner or not. It's also silly because pot doesn't give most people a terrible hangover. Alcohol does and drug testing, because it doesn't cover alcohol won't do anything to insure employees don't skip work

True. Americans see themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires like Steinbeck said.

No worries! I'm going to a barbeque in about a half an hour. Just passing the time till then.

But poor people are icky so it's all OK amirite?

Bling and apple bottom jeans? Wow. I have a feeling that you're actually just a racist who resents black patients and assumes they're all on welfare and/or drugs whether they are or not. It really terrifies me that you work in an ER and are responsible for people's lives and well being.

He might have. After all, he probably only offered to heal people who were smart enough to major in STEM and get a great job. Everyone else deserves to be poor and sick. Jesus was a bootstrapper!

I've only been tested for one job and it was a terrible experience. The people at the testing place treated me like I was already guilty even though it was the policy to drug test all new hires and it wasn't like they suspected me personally of being on drugs.

I'm so over the hypocrisy of "small government conservatives."

Did you miss the part about this being tried in other states and found to be ineffective and a waste of money? You sound like you're just really hyped up to punish people you don't like. It sucks that there are people who take advantage of the system, but if going after them prevents the people who need services

I made the exact point in another thread without reading yours first! I wish the people who are for this, despite the fact that's it's been proven to be an inefficient money waster would just come out and admit that they're classist. This is about punishing and humiliating poor people. Nothing more. And as income

Why do only poor people who get government money have to take a drug test? Why not oil executives who get subsidies? Why not farmers? They get subsidized heavily. How about Boeing or Lockheed executives when they get lucrative contracts?

For one thing, it's mostly marijuana that stays in the urine for a long time. Many other drugs have a short half life and you only have to stay sober for a little while.
