Except the THC still shows up in your blood AT WORK. It's still there. You might not be totally baked, but you still have a substance in your system, which is known to impair you even after the immediate effects have worn off. But since apparently you missed the point of my statement about stealing from the register, let's try a new scenario... Let's say, after hours in the middle of the night I catch you breaking into my house. I lack evidence to convict you of the crime, do you expect to have a job tomorrow anyways?
And on another note entirely; you never HAVE to consent to a drug test. Similarly your employer doesn't HAVE to continue employing you now that you've given him probable cause to believe you're a drug user for refusing to consent to said tests. Whether it's a standardized law or not doesn't matter when you enter an agreement with an employer. If one of his conditions for hiring you is that you submit to random drug screenings, deal with it. Morally right, wrong, or otherwise, if you agree to it, it's perfectly legal. There is ABSOLUTELY nothing illegal about proposing an agreement with even the most ridiculous terms. If someone accepts the terms, it's legal. So if we're talking strictly about legallity, game, set, and match. You agreed to it; unless you can prove you were insane at the time of the agreement, it's legal. If you didn't agree to it, fine, I don't hire you. End of story. When you're working for me, you're on MY time, not yours. By your own words, What I do on MY time is none of your business. That includes any random drug screening I decide to do on my employees, who once again, I remind you, have consented to this the moment they took the job.
