I own a company that manages "Drug Free Workplaces" and drug testing programs.  

I am making a presentation to a gathering of 50 senior executives of
our largest client.  I have my standard presentation which includes
statistics of the costs of drug use in the workplace, signs and
symptoms of drug use, etc.

I am looking for personal stories of drug users that include using
drugs on the job/admitance of reduced function at work because
of drug/alcohol use/recruiting other employees to use.

Here's a sobering story told by a man who was fired for drinking on the job:

Is this the kind of thing you're looking for? I'll be glad to gather
some material for you, but before I get underway, I want to be sure
that I'm finding things that are on-target.

Clarification of Question by jeannie1017-ga on 20 Apr 2004 09:53 PDT

I did a bad job of asking my question.  My company manages deterrant
programs for drug use in the workplace.  We are doing training for one
of our largest clients and will be speaking to 80+ executives of the
company. I was looking for stories from people who used drugs in the
workplace, perhaps recruited other employees and/or whose drug use in
the workplace caused accidents etc.
Could also be story of how "getting caught" using by the employer
helped "turn his life around"
We have the usual statistics of use...need impactful 1st hand story to
demonstrate the deph of the problem in the workplace.  Need this
before Friday when we leave to visit client  Thanks
