    Yep. Screw hair testing.

    That's kind of has an analagous relationship to collecting unemployment after having been working for a few months.

    Ha-ha! I guess so, since my beard goes back 2 years. I used to smoke a little weed, but what good is that if it stops you from working? Stupid hippies can't figure out why they can't find jobs outside of food service. It's because they can't make a lifestyle change!

    I saw them taking the hair sample from some dudes arm pits at JB. I think they yank it. That was like 9 or 10 years ago, maybe they do it differently now.

    You can't do drugs and keep your cdl that being said I would rather be on the road with someone who smoked weed on Saturday and is back to work Monday then someone who got hammered and is so hung over they can't hold down food and hands are shaking like an aspen. Nevertheless the law is the law

    Bear was sticking his nose in everyone's truck coming into Mississippi one 4th of July. I mean they pulled everyone in. He just ask how's it going, and so on, said be safe and I rolled on. Then it occurred to me that because it was the holiday weekend, once he had his head in the window, he could tell if somebody had been drinking. Pretty crafty.
