Denied by Maverick, Other Options?

Dang, that really sucks. I completely understand that companies have to be extra vigilant when it comes to drug use, especially trucking companies. Way too much risk for them, and I personally don't want to share the road with anyone driving a commercial truck while they're high or drunk. It was always my personal policy to never bring it to work, even when I worked for my mom's landscaping company when I was 19 and could've easily gotten away with it. I just feel it's disrespectful when I'm being paid to do a job to a certain standard. But at the same time it's unfortunate that honesty isn't held in higher regard. If Maverick let me take random drug tests for a year or more after being hired and took the cost out of my checks, I'd have done it. But alas, that's not how the world works. Hopefully my honesty doesn't continue to come back to bite me.

Thanks for the link, I'll check em out.

Nice quote, btw. I've got a Will Durant book on my shelf

 

Good info, thanks! TMC is currently toward the top of my list so that's good to know. And yes, I decided that I won't make the same mistake again and play my cards a bit closer to my chest from now on.

 

I should've never trusted that singing cricket in a top hat. Only good bug is a dead bug, I say.
