I'm copying verbatim an artical that as in the Courier Journal on Wednesday. I tried to find it online and put a link but the Courier didn't think it was news worthy enough for their website. Plus, my scanner crapped out or else I would have scanned it and posted the jpeg. Here's an excerpt:
Headline "Man is accused of using fake penis for urine sample"
A Louisville Man was arrested on Monday after he was accused of using a simulated penis and urine reservoir while giving a urine sample in front of a probation officer. According to the arrest citation, the probation officer caught Martinez Ward with a Velcro strap holding the simulated penis, according to the report.
I had already planned to post about this article today. It was purely coincidental that we're having drug testing today at work. To my knowledge, I don't think an incident like this has happened here during our drug testing. Each employee here, from the sweepers on up to the CEO, will be picked at least twice a year for random drug testing. They take precautions - managers stand guard in the bathrooms while we pee in the little plastic cup, and they also put blue dye in the toilet bowls. In the women's bathroom, they put tamper-proof seals on the tank lids, and they also block off the middle stall. The only shady incident that I can remember happened 2 years ago. One of the women from the factory accidentally dropped her plastic pee cup. Yes, it was full. Our haz mat team (one of the sweepers, wearing rubber boots and gloves) spent an hour cleaning and disenfecting the area. The woman then said that she just "couldn't go", so she was sent downtown in a cab to the company doctor to be tested.
After reading the article again, all I can say is that you just have to pee for yourself.
