Southern Discomfort
I'm curious about something. I think I know what the answer will be, but just so I can say I asked...
I am a probation/parole officer. Part of my assigned duties is the lovely routine of conducting urine drug screens. Nothing better than stirring about in someone's piss at 8:15 AM...
As one might imagine, in my tenure I have heard damn near every excuse imaginable, and a few that get bonus points for creativity along the way. These specimens must be observed. Yes, I get to accompany these dudes to the head and observe them pissing in said cup. I've seen enough pecker to stretch from here to London by now. Be that as it may, one of the telltale red flags that someone will be positive for drugs is when they have a difficult time giving the specimen. Now I understand that it can be difficult to pee on demand, and that if the well is dry things can take awhile.
BUT...when someone is reluctant to provide the required fluids, it's a decent indicator that they will test positive. Thus, I hear a ton of reasons why they can't provide the specimen. And that's what I want to ask about.
In all my life, I never heard of "nervous kidneys" or "nervous bladder". These guys often claim that they just can't go if anyone else is in the room with them. My usual reply to this is to ask them what they do at roadside rest stops, or ball games, or other public events. That usually negates the argument, but some cling to their story, stating that they simply can't pee in a public place.
One or two guys out of a hundred...OK, I can buy that. But it seems an inordinate number of "nervous bladders" end up on supervision, cuz I hear this nonsense out of maybe 60 to 75% of males.
So, how 'bout it? Do we have any guys here who legitimately cannot urinate unless they are in total privacy? As I said, I think I know what the results of this little straw poll will be, but hey...I'm bored and figure some data would make for interesting "cup-time" chitchat next Tuesday...
