    I've never had anyone watch. I would have a hard time with it I think if someone was.

    That's not a drug test, that is just to check urine for sugar, diabetes test. That's why they didn't care if you flushed.

    I guess I was confusing DOT and police, i assumed they would be the same way. My older brother was on probation and when they made him take a piss, an officer watched him, so i assumed DOT was kinda like police and would have the same procedures

    I would have to say that this career is not for you. While nobody is going to hold your pee pee or care too unfortunately in this industry public restrooms and showers are going to be your only option. Not to mention I don't know how you are going to get past sleeping in the same truck with your male trainer!

    They do a urine test for diabetes? So I'm assuming there are two completely separate urine tests?
