1. Pharma Parties and the Youth
Throughout the civilized world, the youth of our nations
have found a new kind of party. So called “Pharma
parties” are events where each participant in the party
brings their household stash of legal drugs. Often, the
next step is to put all of the drugs into one big pot or hat
or something and for everyone to draw a random drug,
which will take them into a different world,
psychologically.
Because legal drugs are written by prescription for
specific people or they are standard over the counter
pharmaceuticals are meant for pain relief or
decongestants, each individual body will react
differently…and randomly…to each drug that is brought
to the pharma party.
When the youth of our nation has made a mockery of
legal drugs, you can only imagine what they think of illicit drugs. Perhaps low-impact illicit
substances are not effective in their minds anymore. Instead, they are looking for ways to
increase their highs and lows when they take drugs. They are looking for other chemical means
to find adventure. Onsite drug and alcohol testing is a testament to how many young adults have
grown up from this culture and continued to abuse substances. Workplace drug testing laws
protect high hazard industries, but not really anything else. Fortunately, businesses can just
choose to begin utilising drug screening, and this dramatically reduces the number of workplace
incidents, accidents, and fatalities which are connected to workers abusing illicit substances.
The jobsite should be safe and enjoyable. The workplace should have a minimum amount of
reassurance that each individual employee is not in danger from the behavior or mental stability
of his or her coworkers. What started out as these “pharma parties’ has concluded in a rather
nasty set of circumstances in the workplace, where businesses really must use workplace drug
testing just to make sure that their employees are safe and protected from each other and from
their subordinates and superiors. The whole affair can become quite messy and dangerous,
otherwise.

and standard treatment of this subject which you can use over and over, with full confidence that
