poker addiction?
Question by white.daisy: poker addiction?
My boyfriend has this attraction to playing poker…as of right now, he’s been at the casino for 48 hours, where he’s complaining of a headache, and planning to call out of work tomorrow, but still won’t come home. While he usually does come home with more money than he took, he’s very secretive about his activity there. And the addictive behavior is starting to concern me…he has blown off everything we had planned this weekend while he sits down there. Is this normal or am I right in feeling its a little excessive?
He came home this morning, after being gone for three days. He had to call out of work today, because he was so out of it. He took his credit card this time and lost so much that he refuses to tell me. I am so upset and confused.

Answer by Dancer<3
No you are not over excessive. He has a problem, and he needs to fix it. It’s not right for him to blow you off. And to be there for that long is ridiculous! Sure one night is fine but that is a little over the top. Sit him down and tell him how you feel, maybe he will change. If he doesn’t take him to a counceler. Good luck.

Can my employer give me a random drug test in Pennsylvania?
Question by : Can my employer give me a random drug test in Pennsylvania?
I never signed any kind of consent form and I never received a company handbook or signed/got anything when I started working for the company I work for. Can they legally require me or ask me to take a random urine test? Also, if they do and I refuse to take it what can I do then if I am fired? For the record, I am NOT a drug user. I am however very concerned about my civil rights and don’t want to feel like someone could force me to pee in a cup for them at their request. If they had asked me to sign a consent form upon hiring me though, I would have and I would submit to a test if they asked me to. Bottom line is they didn’t so what are my rights and how can I preserve them? Thank you in advance 🙂
Wow! I guess some people either don’t read before they throw their opinion around or they don’t get that this is a simple question of civil liberties. Or maybe they don’t understand that in this country we have certain civil rights! Again… I am NOT a drug user! But just because I am clean doesn’t mean i’m ok with someone telling me to go piss in a cup! It’s not a question of convenience. It’s a matter of rights! Read some ACLU literature and quit sounding like a brainwashed conditioned sheep following the herd!

Yes you can get fired for refusing. Its called “at-will employment”.
Answer by lcr000
random are not usual practice unless your are in an occupation that requires it, reasonable suspicion can be used at any time whether or not they told you when hired or no handbook.
the drug test starts the minute they ask you to take it, if you refuse or go the next day it is the same as failing

Answer by ?~???~?®
First of all, you need to go to a licensed detox and rehabilitation center. The most important part will be to get all of the coke out of your system, and began treatment with a clean mind and body. For some people, this will seem like the hardest part. People who use every single day are accustomed to keeping a certain amount of cocaine in their body, and when the level drops below that, they have acute withdrawal symptoms and need medical help in dealing with them. However, this is not by far the hardest part.
After getting all of the drugs out of your system, its important to stay in a rehabilitation center or attend substance abuse counseling meetings. Both of these will help teach you how to deal with temptation and how to begin rebuilding your life. Reaching out for help isn’t the hard part, STAYING CLEAN IS. You’ll have to change your life completely — get a new phone number, leave your old friends behind, maybe even move into a new place. If you’re constantly surrounded by fellow users and dealers, it makes it too hard to keep saying no.
Addiction is an incurable disease. You can never be rid of cocaine addiction, you can only manage it. It takes hard work and determination. Unless a person is ready to quit and works at it, it will be almost impossible for them to stay off drugs. If this is you, you have a hard road ahead of you. But it will be more than worth it in the end. Its impossible to have a productive life and be actively using cocaine.
