How can one perform their job doing their best, if on drugs...YOU CAN'T. KUDOS to this mom for going forward with this, sad that her daughter's death propped her to do this, had she seen the warning signs earlier herself. ROCK ON!

Because there are many others that have to be drug tested. EVERYONE gets drug tested or NO ONE gets drug tested.
