Drug test fail rate rises

  • Following weeks of work, the E-GOAT team are delighted to present to you a new look to the forums with plenty of new features. Take a look around and see what you think!
Our lot got p1ss tested not so long ago, talking to the NCOIC Willy Watcher they claimed that they've had a right nightmare with the dark blue lot around Raleigh due to a high failure rate.
 
4.5 years at marhell tested once. 7 years at benson with about 3000 CDT visits, nothing. Must of been in the desert when I was on the list there. 1 yr at conz and 2 yrs at Witt and still nothing!

They must of been after people at benson as I have never seen so many visits on a camp. I think one year they turned up 3 times in 3 months!
 
I got tested 7 times in the 7 years I was at St Athan. Strangely, someone who I later found out was using... never got tested once.
 
The opinions to drugs are different for the noughties plus generations than to those older than that. Its not a abhorrent to them, they have grown up with casual use all around them and largely experimented themselves at some point and look upon it as a pint substitute.

A couple of years ago a party scene was exposed in a large town in the Lakes...Tens of dozens of kids were spotted and filmed in a deserted castle underage drinking, taking drugs incl. ketomine, smashing bottles and other unsavory stuff. If was all over a local Facetube group at the time and you would think there would have been universal condemnation but it wasn't the case...

Any people that spoke out were attacked by parents of these kids who stated things like 'well what else are they supposed to do?' and 'they're just having a laugh'. With guardians like that who can blame the kids for treating drugs like they are nothing more than a past time?
 
A few years ago, I was trekking the Inca Trail in Peru and to combat the altitude sickness it was recommended/suggested to drink coca-tea which alleviates the problems of strenuous exercise half way up a mountain which I drunk by the gallon most days. This stuff is freely available and is sort of a national drink....along with Pisco Sours.

Anyway, I only discovered at the end of the holiday that the coca tea ingredients is the same stuff that is collected from the local farmers and boiled in paraffin to make Cocaine.....doh!

When I returned to work I went to the Med Centre and the doctor laughed at me when I told me what I had done. He suggested that although the risk was very small that small traces could be detected but I should to the police and make a statement of my recent activities.

I got tested regularly for the next year....can't think why!
