I need to pass a test!

[Southern37]

No advice, just sympathy. I think random-drug tests are a violation of your privacy. Especially when it comes to THC, which stays in your system for so long.

I smoke maybe 6 times a year and enjoy it when I do. If I worked outside the home, how could that possibly interfer with my job performance?

Frankly, if I owned a company, I would rather have an employee come to work after a night of smoking pot than a night of drinking alcohol. Wonder which accounts for more sick days?

I agree, its a violation of privacy. I would much rather have an employee who gets high than most any other vice...i mean when they are stoned it makes them to paranoid too steal....lol.. actually i get high periodically as well, more than 6 times a year, and it does nothing to effect my performance, actually i could make the argument it enhances it on occaison.

You guys are great! Thanks for all the info, its been a big help!

Siren, no offense taken. I do tend to down play it a bit, but you are very correct, I am addicted to it. But let me clear a few things up, I guess, it made it seem like Im at the bottom of the barrel here...Im married, my hubby is a self employed builder. The bills are payed, there is food and shelter for us. When i said I was broke, I meant ME...not the family. The reason I NEED to get back to work is I need my own money to play with like I use to..go shopping again, see something out to lunch with my mom, i want to be able to buy it again...of course my money helpd support us too, but its not essential for the survival of my family. Second, mood swings is a bit harsh...yes, my attitude may change, things tend to bother me a bit more..but i don't completely freak out if i don't have it. There are days i go without by choice, not just because i have none. When i said I smoked everyday, i guess i should have said most days. You were right though, I am addicted...we all have our vices...getting high is mine!

cat, did you have something to say, darlin?

Pan, great idea...but according ot Pokerman, ya can't do that...hmmm???

Pokerman, why not??

Because they check for that, and men's urine and women's urine contain different protiens and stuff. Testosterone, Estrogen, etc....you need a clean sample from someone of the same gender if you're going to cheat.

I remember hearing that they used to give 'sex tests' to women at the olympics. I believe it was a simple urine test.

If it really comes down to it. Drop a tiny tiny pubic hair in the cup. If the place is really busy you'll get a few more days to detox with tea or something else.

Good Luck

I've done this many times..................

The only real way to feel confident is........

Go to GNC, and ask the guy at the counter for "Quick Tabs." You will need to follow the directions, but they guarantee that you will pass your test. The key is to drink every ounce of water they tell you to on the package, and DO NOT EAT for 12 HOURS before the test......I got that advice from a Marine that smoked during his enlistment.

Also, a nice touch would be to take a multivitamin the day of the test.......after you drink all the water and take the pills, your pee will be clear. They are often suspicious of that, and multivitamins turn pee more yellow.

If you are still not sure if you will pass the test (this is recommended if your job is on the line) go to Walgreens or Eckerds (sp?) and ask for a marijuana test kit. They run about $12-$15, but if you are super paranoid, it will put your mind at ease.

The QuickTabs are about $38 (if memory serves), and the test, if you feel it is necessary, is about $15.
Don't smoke unil after your test.
If you take the QuickTabs, you shouldn't need luck!

Be prepared for THC to show up on the test. You've been given some very bad advice in this thread based on urban legends.

The worst was drinking 2 gallons of warm water. Wow.

Miles, I know the whole water thing doesn't work. But i do know that the flush juice and the tablets work, so thats what im sticking with. If i fail, well, i have no one to blame but myself.
