| had our d&a test done wednesday night. some people were told right at that time that their sample was no good-Probably diluted. the rest were sent to work. well it is friday night, my forman took my partner asided and told him his sample had problems and he could not work untill he redid it successfully. He had already worked 2 days. did they retest his sample to find anything wrong? it seems kind of funny he was ok to work for 2 days and then all of a sudden he cant work there anymore. when we gave our samples,they split it into 2 jars. would they give 2 different tests? does anybody have an idea on this? hopefully he can get back on so i can ask him. |

Tell me, were you or your co-workers given notice of this test before it happened? Did any of you have a chance to prepare or were you all surprised with the drug test? | ||||

| so are you saying they actually tested him twice then? or was a sample taken from someone and if it looked good was sent for analysis or looked bad visually was a fail? another guy on our crew peed dirty the first night but for some reason allowed to retest the next day and passed. unless we didnt get a correct story from him. everybody knew about the test as it is presite testing. |

If the specimen is blue or green in color, same as above. It is assumed that the donor used toilet water to try to dilute their specimen. If the specimen passes the color or temperature criteria, the specimen is then packaged into a "split vial package" and sent to the laboratory for testing for banned substances or adulteration/dilution. They will conduct validity checks (specific gravity, Ph levels, Creatinine and nitrates) to determine if the urine is actually urine and not too heavily diluted with water or other liquids to get an accurate result of any banned substances. If the specimen passes all that, then it is given an EMIT screening. IF no banned substances are detected, the specimen is given a pass. IF banned substances are detected in the screening, then the specimen is put into the Gas Chromatography / Mass Spectrometer machine where it is determined just how much of that particular banned substance is present in the urine.

| are you guys in the u.s.? im from up north of there. i can only assume the rules are the same or similar about the retest. most of the construction jobs here are pre-employment pee tests as was this one i am talking about. hardly any random testing done after that. about the only time you would have to do it again is if you had an accident. thats why we are probably safer to work with. As with 1tokes thought of favoritism...............maybe. but i do know of a company where almost half of upper management is no longer there because someone in the main office decided they should have a surprise test. i think this is just 1 big freakin game. the company i am contracted to is dutch. this is all legal there. the president probably smokes pot. im sure the government has a lot to do with this. what would happen if it is decriminalized. they cant stop you from working then can they unless you are under the influence maybe. they would have to find another way to test then cause if you hooted last night, you probably are not under the influenc the next morning, but it is definatly in your system |

I thought maybe it was just us scab (non-union) sparkys that smoked dope. Glad to hear we are keeping up to that standard And on the 8th day God created electricians. (because He had made darkness and that wasn't always good. Because of the 7th day of rest, they had to work into the night to get the job done) | |

| our unions here have agree to d&a testing. mostly in order to keep the sites unionized. what a game. and no, its not just sparkys that like to hoot. I am a carpenter/scaffolder. i would guess the bigger portion of us and most union halls like to partake in a little 4-20. |
