    Buried Too Deep to be Found

    We all think that our secrets are buried too deep to be found. We all think that no one could possibly know how we feel, and that we are alone in our secrets, alone in our thoughts.

    The truth is that all of us have felt, in one way or another, many of the same things. Not everything, granted, but many of the same things. We have all felt loss, in different ways, and we have all felt love and heart break, in different ways. But, some secrets or parts of ourselves are kept hidden for what we believe are very good reasons. The truth is, though, that without some way to vent these secrets, it’s hard to keep them inside. It is a bit like stagnation in the physical world. It is just too much for one person to keep inside.

    Many of us have memories or situations which we keep buried pretty deep because we either do not want to deal with them or we have not yet grown enough on the inside to deal with them just yet.

    Whatever the situation, most if not all of your employees carry secrets with them, things which they each keep buried pretty deep. This can eventually eat away at them until they feel that they must resort to drugs or alcohol to deaden the pain. As long as they are doing this off the jobsite, then you don’t have to worry about it. But the second that they bring illicit substances into the workplace or they show up in an unfit state to work themselves, they are putting themselves and everyone else in danger.

    You must protect your assets, and Mediscreen is just the business to business company to help you do that.

    Compartmentalization

    Compartmentalization is a phenomenon which a person uses to not deal with certain parts of their lives. In their brain, they put various things into walled-off compartments, and discreetly shut the door on those rooms. Thus, they do not have to actually think about or deal with something right away and, while they do not actually ignore that such-and-such a situation, person, or circumstance exists, they only have to deal with it for very short periods of time, and then they can walk away, shut the door to that room, and wall it off completely. People who are especially talented with that technique tend to be non-confrontational, weak emotionally, and desirous of peace for everyone. Drama, even positive drama, never enters their lives, and they never seek that out. Compartmentalization is used by them to survive and keep their own sanity in situations that they do not feel able to or inclined to handle.

    Unfortunately, this leads to frustration in others who need that individual to deal with reality in the here and now. It causes many problems, because they do not become accustomed to working with reality and with building and interacting in relationships. It is effectively a very strong form of denial. It is shutting themselves off from everyone else, until only their tiny little world exists.

    Drug and alcohol screening is designed to engage employees in the real world and to give you a set of hard data with which you can discern which employees are engaging with their reality and their work environment, and which are shutting themselves off through the use of drugs or alcohol. Workplace drug testing allows you to look at your collection of workers and to evaluate how well they are interested in, invested in, and contributing to your business. If they test positive on drug tests or alcohol breathalyser tests, then they may be simply showing up to work to make money, and have no interest in the sales of the products themselves or in the services which you offer.
