no that is not true
although many employers have what they call a "last chance agreement"
when ones are caught drinking or drunk on the job
they may have the drinker sign a last chance agreement
where I worked this meant that
they could test one at any time while on the job
if in the next year they found booze in ones blood at work
instant firing with no recourse of either party

knowing this -- should we all count on a second chance
by no means
we all know that drinking before and during work is a no no
