Do aerospace and defense clients drug test?

My patience for this job is waning… I’m 35, single, no debt - Made some decent investments last year in some AI chip stocks and now they’re coming to roost.. my brokerage account is now more than my 401k. I feel like my life is 90% work and 10% everything else. I wonder if I should take some extended time off (6mo-1yr) as I would love to actually have space for things during the week again and explore / grow in other areas of my life. Is it time?
Previously worked for a smaller dod contractor, they never did, but could. Larger ones like Raytheon, Lockheed, etc, can drug test their own, but would be surprised if they could force drug tests on consultants. The bigger issue is the clearance. If you have a clearance or are getting one, they have inquired or will inquire into your past drug use. A couple points: 1. Weed won’t mess you up if it’s recreational 2. Don’t lie. If they found out you lied about something on an SF-86, pretty sure it’s a felony, at the least it will preclude you from a clearance. Finally, once you HAVE the clearance, the expectation is you’re an upstanding citizen and would never smoke the devils lettuce :)
Most do. If DoD contractor, you oftentimes need a clearance as well.
Well shit
Lol just lie as long as ur friends arent idiots.. its a felony but they hardly ever press charges- worst case is you cant ever get a clearance, but if you have done anything harder than weed you cant get a clearance until 5 yrs past the time you rolled ur balls off.
No they don’t
