It occurs to me that drug testing is being pushed by companies that
sell drug-testing kits. I've only had to take one test -- when I
applied for a job as an editor for Battelle (I got the job). The
company paid for the drug test, ,but my personal doctor, who gave the
test, ranted for several minutes about what a waste of time and money
drug tests are.
