this was the response As discussed yesterday, Monday, April *, *, during your termination meeting, you were terminated for a positive drug test result which is a violation of our company policies. For your reference, below are the policies you violated. In addition, when you received the offer letter, you signed a Consent to Test form acknowledging that you understood that information regarding the test results may be used as grounds for adverse employment action, including denial of employment and/or termination of your employment with the Company.
Since you are no longer an employee of Barrios, we will not be able to send you copies of our policies.
Lastly, in relation to rehire eligibility you are not eligible for reemployment due to your actions and violation of the company policies.

Ive been serving in the military for 11 years. When I quit my previous job to accept this one there was a period for a vacation which I took. Its been 5 years since I went on vacation. Well when I did I accidentally consumed a THC beer. I had been drinking normal beers but failed to realize the off brand beer i ordered was a THC beer. When I realized it was a THC beer I threw it away! I took a personal drug test 3 days after and It said I was clean! After that I took the drug test for Barrios Technology. I then worked a week then after the test results came in it was an immediate termination. I even expressed to my boss as soon as I got the results what happened before HR or Barrios contacted us about my termination. I even before the termination enrolled in the Substance Abuse Program at my own expense which was per guidance of the medical doctor that reviewed my results.
