Maybe they shouldn't be violating federal and/or state law.

Even if it is legal in the state, it is still against federal law. They don't get the right to smoke weed and work. It is a drug and outlawed. They belong in prison or worse.

It is best to deny these people work and blacklist their resumes.

No, you cannot. If you do a lab test, like I do, as opposed to a dip-stick test, which lovely companies do, we will spot it. It does not conform to human urine which has other characteristics like specific gravity, ph, creatinine, etc levels that are tested for. If it is outside those ranges, it means the sample is invalid.

We do a 9 panel full lab test with an MRO, because I don't want a druggy gently caress working for me.

lol this is the best because the easiest way to beat a drug test is to have someone that is clean piss in a bag for you, then you strap it to your thigh so it stays warm and then put that in the cup when you're 'peeing'

and you aren't working for the government so you aren't legally allowed to actually watch them pee regardless of what absurdity you're going to post in reponse

I know this isnt a serious post but I also know youre in HR and poo poo so - doesnt it make more sense to just use the mouth swabs? They save the employer a shitload of money since they can be administered on site and you can ask the prospective employee to just self-administer right in front of you. Additionally, they are a lot more "fair" since they only test the last 72 hours. If I'm an employer, I don't really care what you did three weeks ago, but I care if you smoked a joint right before you came in for the interview.

The problem with prohibition is we didn't have the technological advantage we have now.

We know the detrimental effects of alcohol on the body. It should be a controlled substance and only allowed in more...prestigious drinks. Wine, spirits, that sort of thing. Beer and more common brews should be outlawed because of the volume of consumption involved.

Same thing with cigarettes. I hope you guys like your health care costs going up. Every fucker that smokes increases your premium by 0.85%. Harmful choices with no benefit should be simply denied.

Realtalk: The reason we send to the lab for a urinalysis is because if the sample comes back incorrect, we can see why. If someone is honest with me and tells me he is smoking, I will tell him to come back in 3 weeks and test. No big deal, I just need him to get (and stay) clean. On the other hand, if someone says to my face that they are clean, then they go into the test and their urine is loving dog piss, guess what shitbag, you lied to me and it came out on a lab test. Your job off is DENIED. Eat a cock sammich.

Also, the reason you have it go to a lab is that it is enforceable. They have the sample re-tested by an MRO which is a Medical Review Officer. That supports actions for Department of Transportation, etc. Very helpful and consistent. I also always pair labs with local hospitals, so if I have a worker staple their finger in some horrible office-accident, I can send them up the street for stitches and a drug test.

The Collection
During the collection process, a urine specimen collector will:
• Verify your identity using a current valid photo ID, such as driver’s license,
passport, employer issued picture ID, etc.
• Create a secure collection site by:
- Restricting access to the site to only those being tested.
- Securing all water sources and placing blue dye in any standing water.
- Removing or securing all cleaning products/fluids at the collection site.
• Afford you privacy to provide a urine specimen.
- Exceptions to the rule generally surround issues of attempted adulteration or
substitution of a specimen or any situation where general questions of validity
arise, like an unusual temperature.
• Ask you to remove any unnecessary garments and empty your pockets (you may
retain your wallet).
• Instruct you to wash and dry your hands.
• Select or have you select a sealed collection kit and open it in your presence.
• Request you to provide a specimen (a minimum of 45 mL) of your urine into a
collection container.
• Check the temperature and color of the urine.

Yeah you can't just assume they're going to gently caress with the test immediately in all cases as a way to get around the privacy thing, idiot. It's like the probable cause thing, it has to be present in the first place you can't search and then find probable cause after the fact.

It's like, if they pee and the temp is off, then you can watch them pee again.

I hope you have a legal team on retainer because eventually someone is going to sue you about it if you really do watch your employees pissing every single time. Sounds like a class action waiting to happen but maybe that's just because I have lawyers in my family.

I let them take their smoke breaks. But before they do, each time they have to exit the door to the "smokers lounge" which is a smokers-only room with proper ventilation. Except the ventilation only kicks on after 5 minutes of their 10 minute break. In addition, the room is covered on every wall and on the table with anti-smoking materials I get from the state.

my point though is that you seem to feel really strongly about your moral high ground with regard to marijuana smokers when in fact any qualified marijuana smoker who doesn't smoke tobacco would absolutely be a better investment for you as an employer in addition to some strong moral, public health and economic arguments in favor of outright discrimination against cigarette smokers

If you really want to stick it to your smoking employees you should store your farts in a tank & then 5 minutes into their 10 minute smoke breaks you should start pumping in your farts.
