Tobacco screening for health insurance purposes. For those in here arguing - nobody gives a fuck about your weed - or what medication it replaced - it receives federal funding yes but it doesn’t matter if an employee smokes weed. It does matter if MaineHealth has their hands in any regulation of marijuana (which it doesn’t). There is a general expectation you show up to your job, unimpaired, and sober.

One thing you bet is not considered or thought about is how many departments are consolidated into one group say at their headquarters.

You can bet CMP doesn’t have a full HR department, maybe one person that here full time but the rest will be at the headquarters. Dames goes for many other departments that doesn’t need to be at CMP when it can be located at NY or CT. I heard how they pull linemen from other OPCO when a big storm hit and so on.

A new Pine Tree Power will probably need to hire hundreds of new workers not accounted for driving up cost

I get mine shipped from Coffee Bean Corall. Really good selection and the ONE time ive had a problem their customer service were amazing. Threw in a couple sample bags cause they couldnt ship what i normally get before Christmas. Sweet Marias is also pretty rock star and also have a lot of tutorials/podcast and what not.

Sweet Maria’s, roastmasters, happy mug, burman’s. Happy mug probably has the fastest delivery. Sweet Maria probably has the best consistent quality but the last two years their shipping times have grown from 3-5 to 10-14 and the shipping costs have increased with the delay.

You're an idiot for assuming I don't know what drug tests test for..

However, I figured since weed is legal in state, a drs note would help.. as for other medications, are you trying to say nobody with a prescription for real drugs that are included in drug tests can work then? Cause I'm pretty sure a drs note would help them explain WHY it's in their system...

They’re covered by a mix of prior income and credit. To have cash, they need to have charged someone money in the past, which they haven’t.

So all of this talk about just buying the assets and skipping away ignores the money it takes to actually serve the customers. A distribution system is a very hungry animal, especially when the weather is bad.

Who the heck wants to come off their meds for 30 days in order to take a pre-employment test if they don't have to?

You are an idiot if you think they only test for illegal drugs.

And no.. a note from your doctor ISN'T usually good enough.

Then can't you get a drs note to explain why it's in your system?

If this question wasn't asked so frequently (not just for Maine health, it's been asked quite a bit for similar companies)

Be open and upfront about it. Don't try to hide and then try to explain it. If the employer still has an issue, you can look elsewhere for work!
