What do you think about drug testing in the workplace?
Filed in The Category Drug Testing FAQ
I have to right a argumentative essay on random drug testing in the workplace. I was wondering how others felt, for me i could swing both ways because of my line of work. I think if my job would drug test, we wouldn’t have any staff. But I really would rather believe that if random drug testing was done staff would take their job more seriously. I just would like to know what others think, it will help me write an argumentative essay. THANKS!

How To Shut This Hell-hole Down Quickly?
Filed in The Category Signs Of Drug Use In Teenagers
I am a full time manager for a illegitimate gas station owned by a “Ghandi”. I am not using the racial slur lightly and I am not a bigot. He is a penny-hoarding, cheapskate, backstabbing shyster who uses his lack of the English language to excuse himself out of any reasonable debate or attempts at negotiation to better my job and work environment. The only reason I am still working for him is because of my obligation to money; like everyone else I need it to survive and there isn’t much out there. His illegitimate methods have left me with no recourse. I cannot receive unemployment and look for another job because he did not record my payroll and taxes in a manner consistent enough to prove that I have worked for him longer than 6 months (I am bordering on 10 months). He pays me very, very poorly. The only other 2 employees both make only 25 cents less than me and they don’t have even 5% of the extra responsibilities that I have. Any hour over the 40th hour (eg. hour 41 and on) are paid “under the table” cash at a rate less than my regular pay (state and federal mandates at least 1.5x rate of pay for over time). Training time for myself and all other employees goes mostly unpaid (completely unpaid on my part). I am expected to uphold unorthodox methods of operation when it comes to running the store and hiring potential employees. I am not allowed to hire women. I am not allowed to hire young men (teenagers 18 to 22). Smokers are not to be hired nor are people with young children or show signs of potential drug use. As for how the business operates. Employees hours are trimmed to reflect the hours of the stores operation. Employee hours are not allowed to overlap; in the event that they do the employees must arrange between themselves how to distribute the overlapping hours. All employees are on an “on call” status and will receive no special pay and may even expect no pay for the extra labor they did unless they are the only employee present. I am expected to perform responsibilities that involve transportation and the depositing of the money earned by the store on a twice weekly basis ( the owner lives out of the area and cannot come more than once a week). This added responsibility came with no raise, special pay, or added security to the store. I receive no pay while transporting the money or while spending time in the bank dealing with the tellers and etc. Any shortages found in the drawer or the counted cash is expected to be paid back by the employee. In the event of theft I can become involved (my exclusive access to the safe) as a suspect and at times I have had to pay for half of the stolen money. I am expected to fabricate the results of paper work regulated by the state. As for the store itself. It is a 8 pump gas station. Customers cannot walk in they instead do their dealings at the window where a tray and box system is installed coupled with an intercom system and non bullet proof glass. The one door (violation of fire code; there needs 2 be at least one alternative exit in the event of a fire) is also not bullet proof. Shutters cover the main window and door at night. There is no central air; an AC in the one boarded up window provides little relief in the summer and small pathetic space heaters provide the only comfort in the winter. There is no proper ventilation, fumes from ignorant people who refuse to turn their vehicles off regularly enters the small “shack” (literally 8×12 foot room with 8 foot ceilings) and suffuses the air with enough fumes to make myself and other employees develop headaches and become lightheaded. There is no security system, and no panic button.
There is much much more but I don’t want this to be a TL;DR. So what is the fastest way I can
1.) Attempt to negotiate. I am planning on: going on strike, using my good relationship with the customers to reduce business volume until he complies.
2.) If he does not comply I will report him to the local news (a pretty juicy story IMO), report him to numerous agencies, and sue him for back pay.
Now my question is: Anything legal I should know of? Any bits of info that can either help me win the negotiation or shut him down that others see and know of that I do not will be immensely helpful.
***Please Note the Gas Station is Located in the State of Connecticut***
