Two things, first is that I don't buy the reasoning that he left the testing site, it begs the question where did the test take place?
The other thing is I call bs on the hipaa comment, it has to do with the named patient not who paid for the law does not prevent access.speedyk Thanks this. -
I lean towards the hubby smoking weed.
Leaving a bathroom to eliminate solid waste is the flaw that destroys everything. Any Nurse knows how to do a little flush, wipe and make sure that cup is full.
Hubby left the test site and that is that. That's a no no.
Wife, you should test Hubby yourself. Look into various products for parents superstitious of teen drug abuse. You could test his clothes or fingers etc while he is asleep.Just passing by Thanks this. -
I have lol. I had no choice but to make it a package deal with the urine. Not being able to flush the toilet makes it awkward, of course. It goes without saying that I passed. I even left a hair behind in the cup from the struggle.Bean Jr., Dave_in_AZ and Derailed Thank this.

Not a troll...100% new to the forums
At any rate. Only 1 test, how do I get ahold of the MRO? He's only had his CDL a year....
-
The problem is, they've never called to tell him it tested positive. They've never called period. -
Test took place at the hospital in the lab. And I was there, I watched it all transpire.

@driverswife2018 ... that's what we're saying.
If the MRO has not contacted you, then he obviously didn't test positive.
The employer just wanted him gone for the accident, which is within their rights, unless he's union and due an investigation, etc.
I'd just accept it, bc they'll just find another reason to axe him a month from now.. paperwork late, someone said he started off to a shipper... anything.. BUT.. if they can't PROVE he had a positive screen then I'd forbid them from using that as a reason for dismissal.
Don't YOU do it.
Tell your man to go nut up and handle it himself.
If he's new to driving, he probably just needs to use this as a learning experience. Slow down. Look three times.. not twice. These things are not cars. Some of us have been driving 30, 40, 50 years and that's how we do it. It's CAREFUL as hell all the time.
Unless his accident was catastrophic, it's not a career killer.x1Heavy, Just passing by, PPLC and 1 other person Thank this. -
He'll do whatever, I'm just the computer literate one
.
But, his employer gave him a letter from the company employer is leased on to stating he had to see the SAP....that cost us $560. I'm wondering if there's any recourse for that. -
I'd still want documentation that I failed the test FOR marijuana.
I assume he could be required to take the educational course for a refusal, but you stated they said MJ use.
If it's for refusal, and that's a legitimate reason for the course, which I'm fairly certain that it is.. your just out $560.
It's the MJ declaration that boils me.
If it's not true, and it's on paper, on his record, he MUST BE CONTACTED.
He is allowed another test at his expense.
None of this happened.
If they list MJ on his record and can't prove it... to me... that's SLANDER.
