They Laughed When I Said I Was Going To Start My Own Business
Of course my wife said I didn't know what I was doing and my friends also were skeptical and thought that I was completely wasting my time.Yet I was on a mission and determined to build a business and make it a success and build it on my own. Sure I wanted to have the extra cash rolling in, but money wasn't the only reason I decided to start. I simply couldn't stomach the idea of working for someone else for the rest of my life in a job that I hated.So I said who cares what other people think and I began working part time out of my basement.

Why Companies Perform Random Drug Testing
Perhaps the most controversial of all drug screenings is the random drug test. Employers have the legal authority to request a random drug test, whether they have a reasonable suspicion or not. Many companies have implemented a policy of completely random drug testing. This practice can be likened to that of a lottery. If your name is selected then it is your turn for random drug testing; the employee may have little or no advance warning in these cases.Employers often exercise their rights to administer random drug testing as a way to determine whether or not an employee is a drug user; drug use in the workplace is often blamed for absenteeism, health problems and on-the-job accidents. Although many companies already require pre-employment drug screenings, many claim that random drug testing is more effective at finding the drug users in their workforce.
