The Journal reported executives at SpaceX worried Elon Musk was on drugs after an “unhinged” all-hands meeting in which he slurred and rambled.

It’s only a violation of the 4th amendment for government employees, because only the government is bound by the 4th amendment. It’s still bad, but not because of the Constitution.
Huh??? “Bound by the fourth amendment?” Have you ever read the Constitution? The fourth amendment protects you against unlawful search and seizure. As in, a protection afforded to all Americans. Please read a little.

Yes, I have. Have you?
The Bill of Rights is all about limiting what the government is allowed to do. The text of that particular amendment is more vague about who it applies to, but let’s say for the sake of argument it is the law that prevents private employers from drug testing you without your consent. What it absolutely does not do is prevent your employer from firing you if you don’t consent to a search they want to do.
Thankfully, smarter people than you and I decide what the law “applies to.” That’s what the courts have ruled, there can be no “consent” if it’s a condition for employment. There must be articulated suspicion.
