Default Re: Suggestions for Drug Testing @ Work

I thought of another option. I was recently thinking of opening up a new business. I figure sports betting and poker are going well, so a drug testing company might be nice to add to my portfolio. I would of course like to meet your friend's employees. I will also need samples of all the possible drugs in order to make sure that my new testing method works. But, assure your friend that my methods will revolutionize drug testing.

p.s. I won't need samples of PCP..there is no need to test for that anyways..most users do something too stupid to not know they are on something.

I think as a general rule, using vetrinary anasthetics as recreational drugs is a bad idea. IIRC, ketamine as well as PCP are used as vetrinary anasthetics.

I know Ketamine is and it seems that PCP is also an anaesthetic. But, I don't know if it is used by veterinarians. It is not used on humans anymore as an anaesthetic because of its hallucinatory effects. It was used on humans for a few years in the mid 50's and then was stopped. Not only are the hallucinations bad, but it is really addictive causing violent outbursts. Even in the 60's most people did it once and said "the hell with this". I have never heard of anybody taking it when I was in high school (in the early to mid 90's). Well, at least not by itself. Most people would mix it with pot and smoke it. I smoked a joint one time in high school that was dipped in it and it might have been one of the worse experiences I have ever had. I didn't hallucinated, but I was scared out of my mind (and it wasn't like I hadn't done a lot of LSD and Shrooms at the time). My fear seemed to last a long time after the pot had worn off (like 24 hours). I can't imagine what it would have been like in a high dose or taken for long periods of time. I know other drugs can/will cause violence, but this is generally after long periods of time.
