    Being passive-aggressive by nature, I consumed mass amounts of poppy seed bagels from Einstein's Bagels before any drug tests that I had to take. Just to make a point. (I did tell them about the bagels beforehand however, which is the sort of thing they want you to do usually).

    No. I smoke a bowl every now and then after a stressful week at work. A few of my other colleagues also partake in similar activities though they take it one step further by doing cocaine.

    I was tested when I was hired, and would be before certain assignments. Also subject to random testing, but I've never been tested randomly, and I've never heard of anyone else getting tested randomly.

    That may be how he made it up the ladder by getting that extra edge. If employees were coked up all the time production would go up by 50%.

    When I got re-hired. No random or even scheduled tests at my work other than that.

    Abuser? Yes. Loser? No.

    The man I know who does it is probably the hardest worker I've ever met. Regularly works 100 hours per week and he runs one of the biggest equity-prop desks in NYC. Some people do whatever it takes to get to the top.

    The man you know's heart will likely explode.
