    Hopefully they get caught in the “is this guy a lunatic” phase of the interview process. If they are functional and otherwise normal and reasonable then who cares if they’ve got an eight ball in their pocket.

    Related story: my ex worked at a vet clinic for a while. She said they hired a new vet tech and he got fired on day one. He’d stolen some animal tranquilizers or something and disappeared. They found him passed out in his car drooling. Called the cops/ambulance and fired him on the spot obviously.

    Point is, crazies are easy to spot, who cares what otherwise normal well adjusted people do.

        He could’ve easily been sober and outside the test’s sensitivity window. Pass, then still go on to steal horse tranquilizers and get his shit fucked. The test is always an invasion of privacy and only sometimes detect risky persons. Mind you, sometimes it will also give out a false positive and make you refuse a perfectly sober person.
