That missing chunk of hair may someday become a fashion statement, but not today. Having just gotten a haircut not too long prior, I got to do the pre-employment hair sample test. Hopefully the poppyseed dressing I had a few weeks ago won't tilt the sensor scan.

I thought you said Duck Screening - flickr.com is getting obsessive.
-- po, May 22 2008


What, that's not standard procedure where you live yet? These days instead of peeing in a cup, the standard pre-screen drug test around here is a short lock of hair.

I see. And how is the war with Eurasia?
-- MaxwellBuchanan, May 22 2008


The party informs me that it is going well. Pay no attention to the newspapers from yesterday.
-- RayfordSteele, May 22 2008


I'm sure yesterday's papers will contain the correct news.

Eastasia will be defeated soon. And production of boots is on the rise.

Stop making that face.

Drug screening for a job. It doesn't get much sadder. Unless you want to become a member of police, military police or a surgeon or something, then I would understand. Should be done on politicians, but are we talking about a regular job? how sad.

Yikes, if they had the hair test around here, everyone would be jobless!! I guess it's a good idea, but not for people who need a job, so I'll stay neutral.
But, yes [zeno] even Wal-Mart does the pee test. It is an insurance scam, or so I think.

No, they just want a DNA sample. Their plan is to secretly clone huge numbers of Wal-Mart Stormtroopers, who will be eager, biddable, not to bright and willing to obey orders.

When they have enough, they will try to take over the planet. Oh, wait ....

// And production of boots is on the rise. //

The citizens of Airstrip One are delighted at then news. There has been spontaneous dancing in the streets. Party medics rushed to the scene to minister to those who have sustained minor injuries to their pedal extremities, due to minor avoidable user-induced malfunctions in their brand new Syntholeather boots, made from a special blend of recycled tarmac, turpentine, and waste match-heads.

I find the idea of an army of cones even more frightening than an army of clones.
