I had to take a drug test for my new job
Which is always awkward (and a requirement I personally disagree with, but if it saves the company X percent on insurance premiums, or whatnot, then I wouldn’t mind if it were voluntary). To make it less awkward I deadpanned to the nurse that I was worried the eggnog I drank was going to show up. She chuckled, at first.
“Does it test for that?” I asked in a subtle, quivering half whisper.
“No…umm…eggnog?” Her head cocked slightly to the side trying to read me.
“Yeah, it’s just I had some last night. Not a gallon, or anything. Maybe a glass or two. Not too much, anyway.”
“You…you should be okay…”
“I hope so!”
