That's the one, this morning has been an epic struggle.

As soon as I got here this morning ( a bit late), got halfway through my reports and then was called in for a random D&A test which seemed to take forever, it was funny as I was feeling as rough as guts.


Sweet! Would have made you feel better, what did they give you?


my boss handed me an icy cold can of pirate life at 8.30 this morning. i feel its entrapment as the workplace apparently has a zero tolerance alcohol policy....


Does he not like you? a rep gave me a 6 pack to take home one day, I brought 5 back the next day and left them on his desk.

i love them, but this is one i havent tried. we were having a conversation about the mixed carton he is working through at the moment, and as i havent tried this one, he donated it. i cant decide if it is a good sign that he is giving me beer, or a bad sign he is trying to get me sacked by giving me beer :lol:

i feel like i should have cracked it in front of him and gone home. i mean, with the zero alcohol policy, surely that is a sign that he wants my weekend to start a bit early?

Port Local Lagers probably my favourite. The IPA isn't for me. I tried the Festbier at the opening of the Port Adelaide brewery on Saturday, which was pretty nice.

He may be very intelligent. At the very least he'll give you a different perspective.
A mate of mine works with a bloke who thinks the Earth will be consumed by a solar flare, so he's bought a property outback complete with an airstrip and shelter. One day last year he came to work with a 4-litre bottle of water and a roll of aluminium foil for everybody who worked there (20-odd blokes) as he thought that week the Earth was going to be hit. I question his beliefs, but not his character. This fella is an engineer and one smart cookie.
What did he say when the earth didn't get hit?

Back on topic, if you drop a panadeine forte before your test you get 5 days off with pay until your results come back from the lab.

What if you provide a script for it? Surely they don't send you home still?

Yep, the drug in it shows the same as a meth-amphetamine, once it comes back just showing codeine you are good to go again.

You don't get penalized at all.

what sort of tests do they do? Saliva or urinalysis? Shit tests if Codeine shows up as Meth. Good if you're taking Panadeine Forte though. I'd be asking for a test every month so I could get 5 days off work each time.

Saliva, I'm only assuming it's the codeine that shows up as a meth, I'm not that cluey on that shit, I just know that a few of the lads from the floor take the piss with it and scab a few free days off.

They'd both have ephedrine in them?

I'm sure ephedrine is similar in it's chemical make up to methylamphetamine.

Shouldn't be showing a positive reading for Meth. Panadeine Forte contains Codeine

A customer just ordered 5000 persimmon cartons, I had to ring the rep to ask if it was an error, apparently they fit 14 persimmon's in each carton, that means there is 70,000 persimmon's in existence in SA waiting to be sold.
