I heard a (likely apocryphal) story that selling govcloud service would require drug testing for employees that had any access at all to those systems. The story goes that the engineering leader laughed their sales counterpart making the proposal out of the room because they expected to lose
approximately a third of their employee base to such nonsense. This was before marijuana legalization became so widespread, I assume some kind of reality has taken hold now such that the requirements are achievable by a tech population that, anecdotally, smokes a lot of weed off hours. |

in most cases no one cares if you did it last year, but you gotta be clean while on the gub'mnt / contractor payroll.
unofficially after the drug test i don't think anyone asks too many questions. just make sure you don't have to lie on the background check cuz I've seen people upgrade from a Secret to higher, and the higher clearance investigations went deeper and found stuff. RIP job in that case.
but seriously tho, knew a dude who did GIS work for the DIA and he was ripping a bong the second he got home. he eventually got really into the cult-y motivational speaker world, not sure where he is now, but was making fat stacks while blazing for a while
