and no one irl even has the decency to agree with me because it’s so fucking drilled into the culture that these fucking BuNsInNesSes have a Right to do this because it’s a bSUsniEss. like oh yeah they have an office building so they definitely get to analyze my piss because they say they want to. sick fucking freaks.

preaching to the choir a bit on lemmy (or i would hope so at least) but still

    If you don’t like your job, get another job

    Ugh, such a lazy, defeatist sentiment, and intellectually dishonest too. Like, do you practice what you preach here? If you come across a part of something you dislike, do you immediately stop using that thing wholesale? Or do you complain about it a bit, then try and think of ways it could be improved, and maybe go about trying to improve it?

      So what you’re saying is that people should be allowed to get high on their jobs? Tell me about that next time you’re flying and the captain is high off his cracker…

      It’s not a defeatist or lazy argument either. If you don’t like your jobz find a better job. It’s called pragmatism.

      I’m not saying that certain companies arent extreme dicks with all this, I’m sure there are shitty companies out there. Go work for a different one.

      I’m not the one complaining doing nothing, and yes, I’ve left shitty jobs for better one. Yes, I’ve tried making things better. Yes, I got a CTO fired for a lost of reasons, one of them being that he couldn’t keep his hands off the (male) employees. It got me fired too, which I rather expected, but I did it anyway. So no, I’m not the sit-on-my-ass-and-whine-about-it type, but I’d say that you are.

        No, you waffle. Jesus Christ, is that what you’re getting from this thread? You think that because people think employers shouldn’t use drug tests as a barrier to employment, that means they’re ok with people getting high at work? My God dude, get a grip.

        Also don’t take your experience for granted. Just because you could afford to be fired from a job doesn’t mean other people can. Most have to make the best of whatever situation they’re in. Have some empathy for those people. Telling them “get a new job 4head” isn’t helpful.
