Subject:RE: In Reference to Drug Testing From:Barry Kieffer <bkieffer -at- ims -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 20 Oct 2000 10:36:21 -0700 (PDT)
The place where I once took a drug screen test here in Portland, was apparently
also used for naredowells who were on probation and had to pass a drug screed to
keep them out of jail.
As I sat in this room full of foul-mouthed, filthy deviants and miscreants, I
was quite uncomfortable.
When Nurse HammerHead came out barking orders, yelling (yes, the yelling orders)
the hair on the back of my neck bristled. Great, I thought, she thinks I am just
another criminal.
I was watched, scrutinized, servailed, and questioned in a way as to make me
understand I was not trusted.
In a nut shell: It was really yucky, and I am a guy.
It would make me sick to think my wife or sister would have to be subjected to
this.
