I mean I know Reddit is pretty bad in general save for a few subreddits, but what happened to this one? I can’t even ask for advice on false positive UA without some stuck up asshole saying I didn’t technically ask a legal question and deriding me.

Christ just help people

    Not a lawyer, this is not legal advice.

    If you are in a union, talk to them. They may be able to provide you with an employment lawyer.

    Another comment here has suggested you get in touch with a legal clinic. Strongly agree with that - at the very least they can point you in the right direction for your next step. If you're going to the clinic in person, make sure you bring any relevant documents including your employment agreement and your employer's drug testing policy.

    A few points if you're unable to get to a legal clinic:

    • Are you on any prescribed medication that may explain the false positive?
    • does your employment agreement have a policy for disputing UA results? You may be able to ask for a retest.
    • it may be helpful to get an independent test done. However, strongly suggest you get legal advice before you do that.

    Also mods can we please have a legal info comm here? The :reddit-logo: one is so shit. Or we could just use this comm I guess.
