[QUOTE="Fishbulb, post: 232404, member: 10981"] thats the one thing i cant stand, drinking & driving. its bad enough in your off time but i cant even begin to fathom how someone could do this job while drunk. Not just because of risking your own life & the lives of others but for petes sake! how can you get drunk & run around like a maniac in this heat?!?! We had a guy in our center, always thought he was a good guy, hard worker & pleasant attitude.

He went to rehab for it & they tested him regularly afterwards & he came up positive again for alcohol. So they fired him. Turns out the nurse/doctor/rehab person/ whatever didnt have her certification up to date so the test results were deemed null & void & the guy got his job back. I'm sorry but that to me is unacceptable. If you're drunk on the job you should be terminated immediately with no other course of action. You're behind the wheel of a vehicle for 8-12 hours a day with god only knows how many pounds of packages inside it.
