[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1326834, member: 42270"] First of all.. wow. Secondly: was a shop steward present for [B]any[/B] of this? Was a steward called when they had you resign? If not, that might be your [B]only[/B] chance out of this. Key word is "chance" as you already resigned. You need to be calling your union hall and you need to be honest with your BA. The language regarding drug testing requires just cause, which means two supervisors with drug awareness training submit observations of your behavior, in writing, within 24 hours (I believe) of the incident. Additionally, if you're a non-DOT driver, you can give a blood sample at the same time as your urine sample. If the urine is positive (ie. you smoked marijuana in <30 days) but your blood sample is negative (ie. you didn't come to work stoned or smoked marijuana recently.. this depends on individual and the testing thresholds, a lot of which is up in the air. See: Drugged Driving debate in "legal" pot states) then you're supposed to be given a warning letter and a chance at rehab. At least.. that's how its supposed to work in theory. [/QUOTE]
