  • "Random" Test

    Well, I finally got chosen for the random Drug/Alcohol test for my workplace.  Only took four years.  The thought of having to pee on cue is already making my bladder shrivel.

    Frankly, the whole thing is really retarded.  They e-mailed me on Thursday that I had to take the test on my "next work day".  I did not work on Thursday.  I came in on Sunday, and I don't think the Occupation Health building is even open today.  So that's out the window.  I guess it will be tomorrow.  I believe I can avoid ingesting alcohol between now and then.  In fact, I could have checked my work e-mail from home(though I never do), and spotted this 4 days in advance.  How spontaneous is that?

    Sure, I am a person who does not do drugs and usually doesn't even drink alcohol, but if this test is intended to scare or even catch people that do, then giving them a four day warning is probably not very effective.

    Bravo police department.

    I really like this Kate Nash album.  I discovered her on MTV, and I have to say I am obsessed with her voice/accent.  The combination is addictive.
