Question by that 1 chick: What happens at a drug abuse class?
Had a random drug test at work today. I may or may not pass. I’ve been there over a year and I know the bosses like me too much to fire me. I talked to a friend that works there and she said its happened before. They didn’t get fired but they made this person do “rehab” (aka drug abuse class)
I was wondering, what the heck do you do in there? Is it like school? How long will it last? How often am I gonna get drug tested?
If you’ve ever experienced that, let me know what goes down. Greatly appreciated.

Best answer:

Answer by The Republican
I think its stupid they make a big deal out of doing a little drugs. If you do drugs and it doesn’t effect your work then i don’t think they should give random drug tests.
