Does anyone know if High Times drug tests when you apply for a job at their magazine?

NOT a dumb question - if the job position involves any sort of machinery operation, money-handling, etc, they probably CAN'T hire you if you flunked the drug test - Liability Insurance Companies make most of the rules governing business practices these days ... you can make your own magazine, and have it published, etc, - doesn't matter what it represents, but if anyone can possibly be injured, or place the company in a 'liable' situation from a lawsuit, the company has to obey their insurance carrier, and won't hire you - that's why dishwashers, car washes, fast-food, etc. , almost everything requires drug tests these days -- FOLLOW THE MONEY, Honey ... :smokin:

Reality sucks

I'm the associate publisher of High Times and someone brought this discussion to my attention. My common joke is "Sure we drug test. You just have to fail" Not really. I know the question was a joke but here's the truth: High Times does not drug test and we never will. Random drug testing is almost always a fundemental violations of the 4th Amendment (although the Supreme Court says otherwise). And we hope to keeping providing options for stoners who are targeted by this increasing travesty of justice. I hope that answers your question.

Thanks for the form.

Happy 420 everyone.
