do firemen get tested for steroids

[lilj888]

if one is about to join the firemen would they test for steroids?

No, only if you were suspected of useage. AAS is a specialty test that costs more money. Police, Military, and Fire go through the normal 10 panel ( pot, crack, opiates,ect. AAS isnt included.

I wish more fireman would use steroids.

I mean, who do you want carrying your big ass out of a burning building? Some big jacked 250lb dude, or some 185lb "athletic" guy.

This is true where I live also and they have to really have a problem with you to do a test!

No but they WILL inquire about it.

A friend of mine went through the CHP application process and during the lie detector test, they spent 10 minutes grilling him on his PAST usage.

He hasn't touched it in about 3 years but they had him sweating like crazy.

as far as iknow most fire depts are not testing in the u.s a lot of pds are starting too,, dont be surprised if fire men start getting tested soon,.,,,, what a great way to spend tax payer money insted of better equipment for our firemen they will spend that cash to test everyone for roids good idea huh? some pds doing it already at a huge expense,,, and all depts are on a set budget so thats wasted $$$$$$$

More reason for our brothers in blue to get on HRT.

Narcotics - yes. AAS - no, unless they think you're juicing.
