13. I actually was offered a position with a company w/ same policy...
I'm an engineer, and was offered an engineering position, but the company policy was to drug test due to their construction division.

I refused the job offer. I had to deal with the insult of random urinalysis enough while an officer in the Army Reserve, I wasn't about to deal with it in my civilian life.

The funny thing about the random testing in the military is that you could be an outstanding soldier in every sense of the word -- but come up hot on a piss test, and you'd be gone quickly. However, you could be a regular dirtbag, but come up clean on piss tests, and it was next-to-impossible to get rid of you. It's a conundrum I used to just shake my head at.
