Let me try this.
At your department, do they draw ID or badge numbers out of a hat, or randomly by computer each month and require you to submit to a drug test, as part of a mandatory drug testing program?
Yes or no?
Is your question a comparison to a sobriety checkpoint, by chance?...
AGAIN, at any time, any place we agree to be tested. Night or day rain or shine. On Christmas. Thanksgiving.
If you have no experience in law enforcement besides being on the ass-end of it (and my money is there based on experience), shut the f*ck up.
My patience is waning.
Officer is ropadoping.
I signed the same line.
Admin needs cause to justify. Part of collective bargaining agreement in my department.
21 years was enough fer me.
My daughter is a Merchant officer. She gets the cup a few times a year on-duty. Manditory, periodic, random testing. That's what yer talkin' 'bout.
Now, if my department had had that program, all violators would then get the manditory 30-day paid vacation for rehab. [first-time]{although I do know some guys who got a second gift]. Shifts would be real short, what with all the guys taking advantage of the perc...along with the helpless Certs-chewers. :^)
