    Why refuse hair test ? Sorry for being ignorant, but don't see a reason to refuse unless you have something to hide

    Why do it if you aren't absolutely required? All your doing is exposing yourself and your career. You don't know what's going to show up in the hair test.

    Its like letting people take shots at an apple above your head because you were certain you taught them how to shoot straight. Same logic. Only difference is one will kill your career, and the other just kills you.

    Some people are ok being sheep and some are not. I have nothing that hide. I refuse a hair follicle test because it’s not required by the government. What it comes down to is if I don’t like a company policy I don’t work for them. I don’t agree with hair follicle testing policy from any company so I will continue to refuse them until they become mandatory by the government.

    If you or anyone else thinks I am hiding something, well, you’re entitled to your opinion.

    Not with the 10% False Positive... Hair tests are not as accurate as Urine Tests.

    It’s real. I have been following pot stocks. They are very high risk. Nothing will ruin stock value like government and the feds still have it out for dope.

    Don’t worry about it. I’m confusing even to myself sometimes.

    Global was a bonus, sold half so I’m golden. There are ETF pot funds which is safe alternative to many of the sketchy companies.
    Many larger producer need a haircut :)
