I don't have a problem with pre-employment drug tests, but only if, to be fair, they also test for the following drugs:

acetominophen
asprin
anti-depressants
anti-anxiety medication
caffiene
ibuprophen
nicotine
prescribed painkillers such as vicodin, percoset, ultram, etc
pseudoephedrine
wellbutrin
I'm certain there's quite a few more I've missed.

Fact is that all of these substances are potentially mind and performance altering substances. Perhaps a better way to do it is to test if someone gives you a reason to,for instance if they're acting funny or something. And if you find that it's because they've drank 5 cups of coffee and their nerves are shot... discipline them, perhaps not as severely as you would if it was because they had done a half gram of coke that morning, but still... a drug is a drug regardless of weither or not it's condoned by society.
