Zebediah:
Yeah, drug testing is a feature of many professions. I got regularly tested as a software developer working for a major corporation.

Off-topic - this is either a Tapatalk bug or some weird interaction between the forum and Tapatalk, but Tapatalk is informing me that I am banned from the forum. Obviously this is incorrect since I can still post through a browser. But somebody with access to the back end may want to take a look.

Thrillho:
Seems pretty Orwellian. I can understand it for jobs with some kind of privilege or precision involved - like a lab for example.

But why the hell should I get drug tested to stack shelves at Walmart??

Didn't Walmart used to stock firearms?

But yeah, I've never been drug tested, but I have been breathalysed at work. I was working at a distillery at the time and I was assigned to the warehouses, which meant we were checking on several hundred thousand litres of highly flammable alcohol, so it was to make sure that (i) no one was sampling the stock but more importantly (ii) you had competent and sober people in case there was an incident.

Most likely Tapatalk has an IP address range which has a conflict with an old ban.  I'll try to find it in the logs.  Thanks for the report.

Walmart is a bad example then. But also, Jesus Christ guns in supermarkets.
