Day 297: Errands

Today I had to go do a drug test for my new job. They also have you do a breathalyzer, which I think is irrelevant at this point. I get the drug test because drugs are always illegal, but alcohol isn't and since I'm not actually working for them yet, why should they get to decide when I can have a drink. Not that this matters for me since I don't generally drink in the afternoon (unless I'm on vacation), but it's the principle of the matter. Also, it seems to me to be a waste of money. Why not save that test for when the person is actually working for you and therefore should not be drinking? That would be a better use of their money in my opinion.
