drug testing at small PWM places?
If one were to work a summer internship at a small-ish PWM firm, should one expect to be drug tested? Does anyone even do that anymore? I ask out of curiosity ALONE.

I had a summer internship with a decent-sized PWM firm and was not drug tested.
Yes, companies still do that, but it depends. I know a friend that got hair tested (IBD).
If you are indulging, just stop for a few weeks until you start. They aren't going to spot-test an intern.
Sure buddy. Taking a survey right? For a friend or something.
Whichever sounds the most believable
the fact that it's small makes me say - "it depends"
do yourself (or your "friend") a favor and
at least until you get the internship
