As to this post, this was the day beforeNo. I came in to work at 5:45 in the morning and got out at 8 PM. It was the happiest day of our year. Where do I even have time to drink? I got out ate food showered and went to bed

I understand this. I have been reading through as many forums and threads as I could. But nothing I have read seems to correspond with my situation. As I have stated I am not an angel. I asked for help outside of work and this is where I was directed. I understand I was not supposed to blow over a .02. If you read my original post why would I expect to come in for a urine test knowing I would pass If I didn’t think I would pass a breathalyzer?Because we hear stories like this all of the time. And part of the story is always missing
OK, I waited a few weeks because nobody would give me any answers. Is there anyone I should contact such as my labor lawyer, or should I get one outside of the company? As I have said I have been there 16 years and never had an issue. When I admitted I had an issue with alcohol it was outside of work and yes I was a for going through UPS. I just needed a way not to back out! I just want to keep my job and I’m asking what I need to do right now.
Looks like someone has it in for you.I understand this. I have been reading through as many forums and threads as I could. But nothing I have read seems to correspond with my situation.

you dud the mouth wash because you were drinking10-15 min. Took the mouthwash right before I went in because I was expecting a urine test. Had I known it would have been a breathalyzer I wouldn’t have done it. The only reason I did is because of a new medication my doctor put me on.

I have never had this experience before. I have contacted my center manager and my union Steward. I am not familiar with how this works. They said it would be a little while but they would contact me. The reason I am coming here, is because everyone here has more knowledge than I do. I guess I do need to get a lawyer. As I have said I do not wish to lose my job, as I have a house a fiancé and two dogs. It is the collective knowledge of everyone on here that will help me based the decision on where I go from here.You waited a few weeks to do what?
To show that I was not drinking beforehandWhat does a urine test have to do with taking mouthwash or not?

I will respond one last time for you. I used mouthwash right before I walked in expecting a urine test. Why would I walk in thanking I am going to take a urine test and expect to pass if I don’t think I will pass a breathalyzer? The reason I use the mouthwash is because my doctor put me on a new medicine that causes dry mouth. If you have to know that medicine is called Concerta.Unless you did the mouthwash and was tested ten minutes later or right after use then no
I have seen drivers fired for this as well. We had a driver that used to sit behind a certain store and get drunk on route. I have never once come in under the influenceWe had a part time supervisor who was at ups for 20 years. Ended up with a drinking problem, drinking on break etc.. They sent him to get help, he came back and ended up just getting fired
