I can understand that. But if his/her drug use were a problem, wouldn't that reflect in the amount of absences that person has, and his/her work in general?... Which would be a good reason to let him/her go without having to resort to drug tests anyway. No?...

I don't think Hobie meant HE got fired. I think he was referring to Luke's coworkers that mention it's always 420 somewhere.

Just make sure you're using a crappy membrane keyboard, not a good one. :?

I'll be reassembling tonight and see if I got it all cleaned out ok.

We are about to move to a new building that has no spare terminals. So breaking my keyboard would be an interesting way of getting out of work for the day.

What ticked me off? Just about everything. Been a crappy day so far. It's days like this when I'm happy I don't have a job and have to deal with people all day everyday. I will very much enjoy being at home for the rest of the day. Cleaning. haha
