Laws and company policies vary, but in general, employers have the right to enforce a drug-free workplace. If you are struggling with substance abuse, I would encourage seeking help and treatment. There are many resources and support services available.

Q: Can the IRS determine the value of a private party car and say you bought it undervalue and force you to pay more

If I buy a car valued 3k for 1k can the IRS still make me pay the difference? I'm interested in purchasing and reselling vehicles but don't want to get audited for paying what the seller wanted? Does the value matter if your paying what the asking price was?

If they say you bought it undervalue, that would reduce your profit which is taxable income. So it would not make any sense for the IRS
