The buddy tells me when you go to the testing facility you have to drop your pants to the knees(like they check for devices) and GET THIS..he had a nurse stand behind him in the doorway while he did his sample..(my buddy is a very light smoker if at all so he passed cause he's clean) It's sort of like a cross between DOT and some other test. This is in Massachusetts BTW

Some things here do not sound right ..I understood that you can't be observed for pre-employment, only for reasonable cause/probation..gonna be hard to use the Urinator on this one but I'm working on it..

Anybody familiar with this scenario??
They can not watch while you pee unless they have reasonable suspicion that you're cheating. If someone tries to watch tell them you have a shy bladder. If they still want to watch tell them you can't with someone watching and walk out. You can file grievance with your states labor and industries department. Explain the circumstances and they will go check it out and if the company is not following procedures the labor and industries will lay down the facts of life to them. If you can afford to hire an attorney and sue, do that too but wait for the L&I to get through with there investigation.
