"Have you ever taken a Drug Test?"

Best anwser you can give.. "Yeah.. I passed 'em all. They came back 'positive'. They wanted me to take 'em again, but changed their minds when I toejam in the lil cup."

Riko.. hope you find work.. but try not to let 'em get your name into the system as a 'user'. I'd advise against submitting to any further testing citing right to privacy considerations unless you are certain you can pass a drug test.

Good Luck!

I think you can use it to address several people if it's standing in for the word "Look"

or in canadian that would be

"say"

or in british

"I say"

Anyone have the accepted uses of "Dude" booklet handy?

Drugs generally aren't good. Casual use can easily become an addiction.

Having said that, i disagree with Mavericks assessment that drug users are sad, lonely pathetic individuals who need drugs to be comfortable.

I use occasionally and it's most for destressing or some escapism. I also use soccer on TV, skydiving, scuba diving, rock climbing and tennis for the same.

Fortunately, drug tests are relatively rare here. I do expect to have one if I get a second interview though, due to the job characteristics. I oppose using them for 'general' non critical jobs though.

Never touched any drugs. Never will.

IMO people who do drugs do so for a reason, they are missing something in their lifes.

not a good sign,  it doesn't matter what you use (alchohol, tobacco, drugs).  if you are using it for an escape you are setting yourself up for an addiction problem.

I've known alot of people addicted to alot of different substances (it's the neiborhood).  and every one of them (that I know well enough to know the cercomstances) used for that reason.

even with the harder drugs most who use for recreation or celibration rarely become addicted.  

but those who use for escape are setting up a trap- you use to escape stress, you do dumb things while high in a situation thats already screwed up, these mistakes make your life more stressfull, so it takes more of your crutch to overcome the stress (and more often),  wich causes more stress by more mistakes, .........

on the other hand I've seen people do occasional recreational use of some of the hardest drugs out there for 20 years or more without ever becoming addicts.

I smoked pot at uni, and I tried acid once. The latter made me very ill (I must have vomited for hours), and kind of put me off the former. I still drink a fair bit when I socialise though, no where near as much as I did when I was a student, however. The drugs I take to control epilepsy stop working if I drink to excess.

I don't think pot smoking is any different to drinking. I also believe you can be well adjusted and in control and still do both.

Maverick is a retired cop who spent a career dealing with dregs on the street. I don't know about the sad and lonely part, but the pathetic handle seems spot on to me.

I have tryed almost all type of drugs (with exception of crack and the newest chemical mix, like exctasy), when younger.

But I stopped 10 years ago, I am an addict?

Well, I still use some good wine, not in excess...

but it is'nt a drug... or not?

;)

Maverick, how would you classify me.

a) a sick and pity being, deserving an immediate suppression

b) a stoopid young becomed a sick adult, just some year of prison.

c) a decadent european

d) all the above

P.S.

I am an addict, specifically an AH addict, anyone know how can I pass a AH-addiction test?

I was lucky to not have met people like Mav....

So I had possibility to grow up.

1) Addiction in itself it's not a crime, it's a disease.

2) An addicted criminal it's a criminal.

3) An addicted it's an human being needing help.

4) An addicted it's not necessarly a criminal.

Mix the above 4 sentences.
