    Everbody takes a pre employment/dot urinalysis just to hire with a company however by law they have to do a certain ratio of random tests every year. Im at the very very front of the alphabetical order so its really really rare when I do a random its only been 3 times in 22 yrs.

    Some newbie drivers are lucky to eat that well the first year . That's why the turnover rate is so high . The majority don't last a year

    They look at the toilet to make sure you didn't flush or anything. The tests I have had to take, they put some kind of coloring in the toilet before they leave the room so that they know if you flushed or not.

    I had a physical two weeks ago with a hernia test administered by a male doctor.

    Few years ago I had a yearly physical done at a clinic overseas, young 30-something female British doctor. She does the Hernia check, then the prostrate exam, I"m lying on the table with my pants around my knees, and she looks down, pauses and says in her British accent "Oh my, I seem to have your knickers off" No kidding.

    Same here two weeks ago. A couple years ago I had one done and they did the hernia test differently. Something like laying down, lifting legs slightly in the air then feeling your abdomen rather than the groin area.
