In most cases, the potential employee (reader in this case) does not pay for the background checks, drug tests and the like. The employer usually does; in this case, that would be the state social services program. If I were paying a reader out of my own pocket, I would be obligated to pay for such tests if I bothered. When I hired readers in the past for my own use at my own expense, I just hired someone I knew fairly well and felt I could trust her. On Fri, 25 Jan 2002, Maurice A.
