Drug Tests

Recommended Posts

I meant job interviews from outside candidates. I have been drug tested at every company I have gone to work for.

I passed all if them...did not have to worry about it...because I chose not to use drugs.

I gave a hard time feeling sorry for someone who does not get hired because they failed a drug test. It is a decision that they, and they alone make.

 

Yep.  I hate to admit it but you're right.  Even though a lot of people don't consider it a "drug", it's still considered a drug by a big portion of our society and of course legal standards and I should prob take a good break going into the corporate world.

This made me feel good.  I'm basically doing the same.  Running 10 miles on the elliptical every day and doing the steam room for 30 min.  2+ bottles of cran juice and ~1 gallon of water a day.    

 

10 f*cking miles???  You should be clean after 1 run.  :)

I see so much tax revenue missed in this thread.

 

 

Oh the schools pot could build...

 

 

Build schools, pay teachers, actually supply supplies. If only. 

 

That all would be great, but I wonder what they'd actually do with the taxes.  Why can't we afford  new schools and more teachers? Where is all the $ from the "education lottery"?

Not true. As I said earlier, I've passed many tests diluting my sample. The only thing ever said to me was "you drink a lot of water".

 

I hate to tell you but this is true. As a 12 year veteran of the probation system, you can absolutely fail from a diluted sample. I never smoked when I was on probation, so I never had a problem, but I know COUNTLESS people who had tests returned from the lab as a diluted sample. They would immediately just go to their house and make them piss on the spot. You're running a risk by just using a dilution method. You more than likely just got lucky.

Maybe so. Luck has rarely been on my side. Maybe the gods of green were looking favorably upon me.

Depends on the level of the test. Some companies use the lower and cheaper tests. But, the more advanced ones also identify higher levels of water in the system...which will trigger a failed/questionable result.

We have always used the higher tests when we hire executive candidates.

Dilution is one method of red flagging.  Abnormal amounts of other chemicals in the urine send up red flags as well.  Funny thing is...scientists read too.  Notification to company/authorities asking for testing to surprise test after saying they'd "passed".
