This is probably worth a whole other thread, but you had to take a drug test to work at a funeral home? I'm not saying that because I don't believe you, I just think it's fucking ridiculous.

Well....I know this sounds nuts....but the testing is normal. The insurance companies feel that all drug users are a risk. There are also a great deal of federal and state regulations that the funeral home must follow.
Basically, they are afraid that an employee may:
1) Take and/or use chemicals to manufacture illegal drugs.
2) Not follow federal/state regulations and cause fines and/or lawsuits.
3) Steal valuables from the deceased and their family.
4) Etc., etc., etc.
As usual, it is a broad judgement, and completely unfair, but it is what it is.
