i honestly wouldnt care about drug testing if all companies would switch to saliva testing for THC.

tbh, if you're in a position you use it as medicine regularly its a pain in the ass. even if you do quit for "just a month" you suffer from your disorders badly in that time (as long as you dont have seizure disorders you'll be fine), and if anything happens that they just test you later it doesnt even matter that you were sober during work.

the test goes back too far to be fair or indicative of current use at all. you could literally use 25 days ago and still not pass that test.

whereas heroin, meth, crack and coke users only wait few days to few weeks to pass test at max. people are literally shooting up in ur work bathroom and sniffing pills in there then pissing clean 2 days later and keeping their jobs, getting that disability payment, and actually BEING HIGH AT WORK on hard drugs fucking shit up and they barely EVER get caught.

mostly 99% of people who fail those tests, fail only for pot. unless they are a hardcore addict to the extreme or alcoholic and literally cant keep their shit together anymore because they are past the point of hiding it.

whether you like pot or not, you have to realize how significantly unfair it is, regardless of how many claims they get to deny and how much money is saved specifically because of it.

insurance costs are artificially low on business, hate to say. that is one risk that should be forced into the cost whether its liked or not by anyone.

a test like saliva goes back like 2 days so it becomes equivalent to most other standard tests and is much closer to proving the individual was high before the interview, during the interview, or at work.

a piss test for thc proves nothing as far as exposure within past 2 weeks. it couldve been past 2 weeks. or past 3. couldve been at any time and such a test is no verification of potential workplace intoxication.

it does not work like a breathalyzer. at all. if pot was legal and you smoked 2 days before driving and the cop decided to test you -- you would fail the test dead sober and get a DUI for no reason -- which is why in those states anyone with a lawyer always gets that charge thrown out unless there is literally a joint in their mouth when they roll down the window for the officer definitively proving it.
