Let's just dispense with drug tests entirely, and administer performance tests, instead.<BR/><BR/>A city employee whose job is cutting the grass, picking up trash, and tending flower beds shouldn't be fired, or not-hired, because she has THC residues in her blood. A simple test can be designed, and administered via a computer and monitor, to make sure that she is able to perform her rather simple duties.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, if she is wearing a badge, carrying a gun, operating heavy equipment, or minding the fresh water or waste water machinery, a test should be a bit more rigourous and the performance standards high enough to cause a supervisor to send someone home for the day if the standards are not met. And it would not matter if the standards are not met because of legal meds, a hangover, a fight with the spouse, a sick kid who kept her up all night or whatever. If she can't do the job, she goes home till she is better.<BR/><BR/>The reason we don't do that, is because people in general, and governing class Texans in particular, are mean minded when it comes to drug use. They want to punish people. And these same mean minded people are more or less non-caring when it comes to public employees being off their best performance due to other causes. If it ain't drug induced clumsiness, they don't really care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-32912176375209111262007-09-05T10:27:00.000-05:002007-09-05T10:27:00.000-05:00So.........why aren't public servants tested for d...So.........why aren't public servants tested for drug and steriod use?<BR/><BR/>There are a probably a lot of bubbas in a lotta trouble!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-10388547960514808132007-09-05T09:59:00.000-05:002007-09-05T09:59:00.000-05:00“I can understand why psychoactive drugs are illeg...“I can understand why psychoactive drugs are illegal – they get you high. But steroids help you with recovery from personal injuries.”<BR/><BR/>Isn't that exactly the same kind of whiney, self-centered justification used by just about everyone who does something wrong? Lawyers, cops, prosecutors and judges hear it all the time. And this guy was law enforcement. I wonder if he has any better defense.<BR/><BR/>And I wonder if he was careful to make sure that ALL the statutes of limitation have run on his offenses, before bragging about them. Federal as well as State. Conspiracy. Fraud. Continuing Criminal Conduct. RICO, maybe. Organized Criminal Activity.<BR/><BR/>This Bubba could be in a lotta trouble.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
