They call someone out of class, make you piss in a cup, then it goes for basic testing through the school, then it gets shipped off for more advanced testing at a facility.

I just want you to know I feel for you youngens having to live with this. I think I may understand the frustrations that I see coming from the young kids. This is a total invasion of ones privacy, and I don't see how giving students piss tests, have anything to do with learning and getting an education.

I do have one question though, what if you refuse a test? What would happen? I'm just curious, that's all.

All I know, is back in my day, if someone told me to piss in a cup, I would be, Fuck and You. 2 wonderful words put together to form an insulting comment. :S4:
I've been piss tested. Generally, they can only piss test you if you are in some sort of extra-curricular activity. At my school however, since it is a technical institute they signed everyone up for "skillz usa" which is a competition thing that only like 3 people from each school can actually go to. So, our entire school is subjected to drug tests because of that fucking absurd loop hole they found.

What happened when I failed (lucky me, I wake'd and bake'd the morning of the test...) is they made me take 5 one hour sessions at this place, which was about stress and completely irrelevant. I get tested every time they do randoms now. If I fail a second time, I have to go to a rehab thing I guess, with 20 sessions and it will be way worse. 3rd time, I think I'll just get kicked out.

Obviously it pisses me off and I fail to see the relevance, but we all know drug testing is complete bullshit to begin with.
