Do aerospace and defense clients drug test?

People being let go bc of comparing performance against peers is bs. upgrading the team? how come other rigorous fields (investment banking, medicine, Big Law, oil & gas engineering, trading firms, etc) don’t feel the need to do this, yet they have the right people the teams need every year 😂 consulting isn’t the most rigorous/difficult/or prestigious career. just say it’s for the greed of the firm, at the cost of unempathetically uprooting employees lives & at least you’ll be honest.
I was just terminated from the deals group. I’ve let myself go in terms of my health and weight. I figured I’d use a good chunk of the severance time to get in shape over the summer and focus on my health but my friends and family are pushing me to find a way to juggle both and call me crazy for taking my time. My plan is to build a morning routine of fitness and work that into my new schedule when I’m rehired. Any thoughts ?
Previously worked for a smaller dod contractor, they never did, but could. Larger ones like Raytheon, Lockheed, etc, can drug test their own, but would be surprised if they could force drug tests on consultants. The bigger issue is the clearance. If you have a clearance or are getting one, they have inquired or will inquire into your past drug use. A couple points: 1. Weed won’t mess you up if it’s recreational 2. Don’t lie. If they found out you lied about something on an SF-86, pretty sure it’s a felony, at the least it will preclude you from a clearance. Finally, once you HAVE the clearance, the expectation is you’re an upstanding citizen and would never smoke the devils lettuce :)
Most do. If DoD contractor, you oftentimes need a clearance as well.
Well shit
Lol just lie as long as ur friends arent idiots.. its a felony but they hardly ever press charges- worst case is you cant ever get a clearance, but if you have done anything harder than weed you cant get a clearance until 5 yrs past the time you rolled ur balls off.
No they don’t
