"Family of 5 depends on results"

No, fuckhead - they clearly depend on you, and obviously shouldn't.

Yeah sure, for smoking a week before they knew about the incoming drug test?

Don't be an asshole

As has been pointed out, you're assuming weed. Even if you're right, and yes weed should be legal everywhere, when you have a job that you know you will lose if you smoke AND you have people that depend on your income, it is absolutely irresponsible to do it anyway.

Yeah, righto sport. Neither of us have that level of detail.

What we know is that this clown who can't pass a simple piss test and, for whatever reason, won't get paid because of it. And it seems there's at least 3 kids depending on him to have stayed clean.

Whatever.

See, the want isn't weird. The price is way too low. You're asking someone to come to you, take special steps, and do it for chump change. Maybe if someone was right next door, 20 bucks would work. Gas prices or other transport costs drive that up a good bit. The time involved ain't free either, though you'd have to be far away to make that work out to less than $10 an hour, which is okay for a zero skill job. But if you have to deal with traffic, that isn't exactly good pay lol

Exactly! The provider may also be loosing their mug.

Male mid 30s

Do they think the drug testing place can tell the sex and age of someone by their urine?

[–] ThePantser@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago

Don't forget the old TV trope of "sir you are drug free but you are pregnant"

[–] Jeremyward@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

Not the age but they can definitely tell the sex of someone from their pee.

[–] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Technically could test for t or e, but there's no way they're going to

[–] Rootiest@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I don't know about age but yes they can tell sex (and species) from urine samples in a lab.

[–] MNByChoice@midwest.social 7 points 1 year ago

I am all for living one's life as they see fit. However, once one is searching for urine to keep up their lifestyle, a few lines have been crossed. If that is good or bad is left for the reader.

Definitely read that as clown pee at first. Seemed reasonable.
