I was often told (though I have no idea if it was entirely made up) that the drug tests that WADA/UKAD/whoever were administering to athletes would pick up poppy seeds as heroin. I expect those panels are considerably more comprehensive than an employment drug test though.
This is either true or an incredibly pervasive misconception.
