I'm supposed to take a drug test in 20 minutes.

I fucking need this job, man. I hope I fucking pass.

[Trasher02]

Haha.
Drug test, big deal I bet you and yr clean body pass it without any problems.
no biggie.

[HaydenAsche]

I'm hoping it is a clean body. I smoked pot and did alot of oxy about 2 weekends ago. I've been staying somewhat clean, really.

Thanks for the condolenses, really, I mean it.

[Inhuman]

really? They do drug tests? At my job they didn't even interview me, they just hired me. Good luck with that man!

[HaydenAsche]

Almost everywhere here does drug tests.
Target
Wal-mart
Best Buy
OfficeMax

I only apply at corporations, though. I'm a tool like that.

[Trasher02]

Doesn't it take 10 to 30 days for pot to get out of yr system? It depends on how much body fat you have, if you're fat it takes longer to get out...

So maybe yr lucky.

[HaydenAsche]

10 to 30 days if you're a regular smoker. I only smoke probably 1-2 times a month. I passed one last time and smoked pot 3 days earlier. It's the oxy I'm worried about.

I personally won't work anywhere that makes people submit to drug testing. I mean, maybe if you were an air-traffic controller or something, but to work at fucking Target?
And to the people who say "I don't use drugs so I have nothing to hide:" you should be even MORE outraged than someone who does use drugs, since you are being asked to prove that you do not engage in activity that there is zero indication you have any interest in participating in (not to mention that what you do on your own time is private and the fact that you could be a raging alcoholic who is dying of lung caner from smoking cigarettes and still pass a "drug screen" testing for much milder chemicals).

I used to work with a lady who would frequently turn up for work having shot up on the bus on the way to work. It was a menial shit job, and she could do it perfectly. Going to work was a great way to subsidise her habit. She was lovely, until she got sacked for stealing. The lesson, kids, is if you do have a brown habit, try and keep it under wraps, eh?

The measure of competence is performance.

[Hip Priest]

When I was a sports coach, I had a colleagu who was absolutely alcoholic; four cans for breakfast, four for lunch, etc etc. He hardly ate any food at all, and hadn't done so for quite some time. But you'd never guess he drank - didn't smell of it, was never drunk. Nice chap, actually.

It's pure discrimination in many cases. The fact that some companies, test new employees for HIV, is atrocious. All because it costs the company money later, when the patient gets full blown AIDS.

[Savage Clone]

Companies that do credit checks on prospective employees can fuck me as well.

If you eat poppy seeds they can test you positive for heroin.
Learned that from Mythbusters.........

not surprising, a coworker just fucked up his back and our company told him they would pay full expenses if he quit, since back problems usually are reoccuring.

and poppy seeds are from opium, which is why you test positive.

[static-harmony]

I didn't know about the HIV thing, that is totally fucked up man. Don't worry Hayden did you drink a lot of Cranberry Juice?

not heroin specifically, but any opiate. and you have to eat a lotttttt of poppy seeds.

[Пятхъдесят Шест]

I remember starting a thread about this some time ago, when a co-worker of mine was randomly selected for a drug screening. He also smoked pot on a regular. Poor guy was fired. Of course, this was at a hospital...

they did an episode of Seinfeld where Elaine failed a drug test because she ate too many poppy seed bagels.
