Can I request a blood test instead?!
Question: Can I request a blood test instead?
I feel VERY uncomfortable giving a urine sample for a preemployment drug test. I never could. I just worked a job where the employer allowed me to instead take a blood test and I let them pay for it through my first paycheck. Would that be allowed at a retail place if I suggested it? Do you think anyone would do that for me if I paid for it? Thanks. :)
Answers:
It never hurts to ask. Many places, however, are VERY rigid in this area.
Be prepared to explain your reluctance to the future employer.
