That's the problem. Not many can pass a drug test. NPR had a story on this a while back. Some manufacturing company was looking to expand (I think this was in Ohio) and couldn't because they couldn't find enough workers who could pass a drug test.
My F-I-L is having the same problem right now. He is the manager of a GMC dealership and is TRYING to hire people for all positions. Can't do it. Nobody can pass a drug test. My M-I-L used to be the manager of a restaurant (for decades up until about 8 years ago). She said the same thing - either they couldn't pass a drug test or they would get hired, make just enough money to pay the rent and then she'd never see them again. Horrible.
