This has no bearing on my posting for the day, just looking to pique your interest you sick voyeuristic pervert.
On Monday I have to go for my first pre-employment drug screening. This irritates me, for a couple reasons. First, I am being accused of commiting a crime, merely because I am applying for employment. The message pre-employment screening sends is, "You applied to work for our company.. you must be high."
The second reason it bothers me is we have allowed our corporations to collect and analyze our bodily fluids. The idea that someone wants my urine is mildly disturbing. The idea that my urine is more important than my skills and abilities in assessing my value as a potential employee, is extremely worrying.
Imagine if you will...
"I'm sorry "Superman", you have super strength, x-ray vision, you can fly, are impervious to heat, bullets, cold and the deep vaccuum of space... but apparently you and Aquaman have been experimenting with the hydroponics, so we are unable to employ you as a security guard."
This is my hell, I'm sorry you all have to live here.

I share your concern. What is really troubling is that now a lot of jobs are doing personality testing along with the drug test. I applied at hollywood video recently, thinking surely i pass videos over the counter and press some buttons. I was wrong, apparently there is more to working at shitty minumum wage corprate chain stores than competance, there is the matter of them probing and then assimilating your soul!
