Talked to him, he apologizes and refuses to do anything else. I am trying to get him to admit a false test. Otherwise it could be a 22 week wait to see a urologist. And in 4 business days they register a fail and I can't work until I complete a SAP program.
Drug testing help!

Is this test so you can work in the USA? I would go to supervisors house tonight and convince him a retest would be in the best interest of both parties.

Medical Review Officer
Medical Review Officers (MRO) are licensed physicians who have been trained and certified to review the lab results and to validate whether a test is positive. MROs receive laboratory confirmed urine drug test results; determine whether there is a legitimate medical explanation for a laboratory confirmed positive, adulterated, or substituted result; and review and report a verified result to the designated employer representative (DER) in a timely and confidential manner. Regulations concerning MROs and the verification process are found in 49 CFR Part 40 Subpart G.

Update:
I lost everything. Truck and company, I've gone bankrupt and after all that happened I finally proved it to the MRO and he reversed his final ruling...
Spent months trying to find a lawyer and none will bite since I can't afford retainer. So I'm through, I took a few months off work to gather myself and now I'm working for a small company helping him build his dream while I sort out legal issues in my life. I will be taking people to court, but not for everything, just enough to get my life back on track.
Final tally when I went bankrupt: $215,000. -
I celebrate your reversal. Take this time of relative quiet to document your targets in Court before you attack so to speak. Be very careful to take on those who are pretty clear cut in the situation vs yourself.
Bankrupcy is bad, but in this temporal world to use a bad fitting term, is literally temporary. Not the end of the world. If you were to see the medical side of my billing that I wrestle with every month I am also bankrupt but do not trigger that within our Courts just yet because of SSA Rules related to that.
It would be good to use this time of quiet to collect your thoughts and determine what you cherish in life and then go after it when you get rested and ready to do battle.
I spent some time writing and I apologize for the excessive detail to some of it. This so called war on opiates is a problem. I was speaking with a relative about our local ambulance service on steel suspension on US 67 to the hospital and every plate was a strike of excessive pain on the joint. Not a drop of anything was given during that ride. They did have a airride wagon, but that is reserved for obese patients 500 pounds or so.
I feel fortunate that I have gotten hardened to pain, it does not bother me anymore like it never really did in trucking long ago. But I can tell you for every one of me, there must be hundreds wailing in need of medicine all the way there every day. Our Society has gone derailed from what they were before in helping people to a place where no one gets the kind of help they need at all for fear of enforcement or testing against them. And so the weak must perish.Last edited: Nov 13, 2018
HighwaySuperTramp Thanks this. -
Was it not possible to put the truck to work somewhere else... even a Canada-only carrier whereby the testing would not have been required?HighwaySuperTramp and x1Heavy Thank this. -
I had no option and no money to put it on anywhere.x1Heavy Thanks this.
