Raid the Rolodex that all businesses should see

I started an email for my friends that own and manage local businesses, and in the process realized this really should be a blog post because ANYONE around here that owns a business really should mark this resource. 
Jenee Morris is with Drug Test Solutions here in Bakersfield.  Now, I know what you are thinking- why would I need to worry about drug testing.  Well Jenee was kind enough to explain a little of what they do.  Not only can you test for drugs at the point of hiring for like $8 via a simple swab, but they can do the background check including seeing if they have filed a lot of workman's comp claims.  That could be a big help for some people I know that have been burned by that bad apple after hiring.  Now they can do the more comprehensive  lab test etc, but as she explained to me those are more expensive when you can do a basic test at hiring.  So after a very informative lunch I was completely impressed with what they offer and how affordable it can be.  I personally thought it very cool and CSIish when she told me that they have these swabs even that can go over someone's keyboard and be an indicator that there could be drugs present.  Now that is cool- she did point out that it is the definative test, but how cool would it be to just swab each keyboard or phone or whatever of the 60 employees one day and then only worry about testing those that show up as a potential user?  Of course, I immediately go into Mom mode and have visions now of swabbing every glass that any boy touches that comes to out house to take the girls out in high school!
