That's what I thought too. Turns out he is right. Federal law allows for random testing, but some states have different laws that say in certain circumstances, it is not allowed. Seems pretty stupid to me.

As far as his other comment, I believe the employer's insurance company would have to pay for addiction treatment. I don't know if that is a "must" or not in all cases. I do know it at least holds water in some cases. I am fairly certain that in some careers it would be ok to fire based on a failed drug test as it can be a huge deal for the job at hand. I am sure (?) a Doctor could be fired for having a drug issue.

...my employer does conduct random drug screens and I was one of the lucky ones chosen. Good thing I don't partake in any recreational drugs. The only drug I need is the love of a good woman... Or is it a bad woman? Oh well, either will do. :)

Many years ago when I was young, my manager told me to report for a drug test.
   I reckon  he could smell some  skunk on me, I could see it in his eyes, his nose, clenched jaw, and dandruff on his jacket, he was a Coke head.
   I told him sure I will, and I'm telling Boss Hog I know you are on Hard drugs.   You will also be  taking a drug test .
   Never heard another word about drug test from that fool.  
 
         I like your taste in women Senator.  
    She's not beautiful in the pure sense, but she's got the undeniable ready to be good look.

And for those who may wonder about what happens to one's employment status if they fail a drug test, ask a nurse who's failed one.

..or did you get Joe Christmas some other way.

Wow, yes absolutely.  I've even made the pilgrimage to Oxford, MS. Sat and had a beer at the spot I'm told he used to like getting drunk out on courthouse square.   I figured someone would be on to me at some point!
