Job hoppers don’t admit flunking drug tests Job hoppers don’t admit flunking drug tests 8/1/08 Quote: In response to yet another congressional request for a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration-related investigation, a federal analysis of case studies indicated CDL holders do not disclose previous positive drug test results to potential employers. The Government Accountability Office released "Examples of Job Hopping by Commercial Drivers after Failing Drug Tests” July 30 in response to a request by Democrat U.S. Reps. James Oberstar of Minnesota and Pete DeFazio of Oregon. http://www.etrucker.com/apps/news/article.asp?id=71230 __________________ The Truckers Report Merchandise

I had thought this was the purpose of DAC? Too bad the DAC has become a twisted version of what it was supposed to be so that it has become unreliable. __________________ Are you feeling lucky?

Well you could consider me a job hopper, and I assure you that every company I applied for always checked with the past companies for failed drug test. I find it unlikely that this is a huge problem as they make it out to be with my past experiences. (although any serious drug user getting behind a wheel is a problem). I find this to be just another atempt to dig deeper in innocent peoples personal lives like DAC already does. (again failed drug test should always be available to a potential employer)..
