What do you think about this??

Question

So, I had to take a drug test on thursday for employment. Well, I smoke pot pretty much daily...and I stopped when I found out I had to take the test. I was clean for a week and a half...ONLY drank water and cranberry juice all week, took b-12 vitamins, goldenseal root pills AND bought body flush to drink that day (the 32 oz. "extra strength" one...and it was fcking nasty. lol) and continued to drink water that day...and took the test.

What do you all think? Pass or fail?



I'm a little worried. But, I'll be finding out the results Monday - - and if I pass...I'm guaranteed the job...starting TUESDAY!

(which means I'll be screwing over my current job, since I'm a full timer. haha)
I know, I know...I shouldn't be smoking...but sh*t happens. So, if you don't like drugs, ignore this post. I'm looking for serious opinions here.
Thanks guys! <3

Aloha From Down Unda!
You're asking what we 'think' & then discount anyone opposed to smoking pot.
You have effectively eliminated any objective 'answer'.
Never-the-less, I hope you merely are able to recognize the results of your actions & take appropriate measures to insure that your 'job', regardless of the position, is able to be performed without risk to yourself, fellow employees & the general public.
Irresponsibility is apt to be reflected in your goals.
You may be awarded the new job, shaft your old employer & squeeze by for a while, but sooner or later, your actions will invariablely either 'bite' you or allow you to see the right paths for success.
Thanks for your 'concern' ~ let's hope you're learning something.

I think you did a whole lot of needless worrying and preparation. Marijuana metabolites are stored in your fat cells, not in water, so chugging water for any amount of time except the day fo the test makes no sense whatsoever.

There are really only three ways to lower the amount of metabolites in your system, one isn't feasible in your case: time, exercise, and diet.

Exercise is by far the most effective, I've read that a regimen of heavy exercise can speed up the disposition of the metabolites by as much as 1000% (!). Diet I've read eating a high fat/calorie diet can speed it up only by as much as 10%.

The day of the test yes take your multi-vitamin and chug lots of water. But the day before the test do this: goto Walgreens and get a self-test (they're only about $20) and take your multi-vitamin and chug lots of water and try the same thing and see if you pass the home test. If so you're guaranteed to pass the real thing.

If you're not an overweight person, theres a good chance that after a week following the steps above you can pass the test. Marijuana-metabolites have a half life in your system so even heavy smokers who start out with a very high number of them can potentially be below the test threshold in only a week's time with adequate preparation. Most of the media facts that it remains in your system for 5 weeks or whatever, while true, isn't really that applicable as the test threshold is NOT zero, but 50ng/ml.

Good luck.

Umm! pardon me, but are you an airline pilot? If you are, God help us all. If you are not, and you have a responsible position, then I respectfully suggest you begin to act responsibly. That stuff is not my concern because I don't use it, but I will give you a little tip. You can drink what you like and take as many tablets as you can find, but it remains in the blood stream for approximately 30 days and quite often longer. There is no way you can disguise it. You are probably a really nice person with a good job. Don't stuff it up for the sake of a few puffs. Your life is much more valuable than that.

Well as owner of a good sized contstruction company out here in massachusetts, we are registered to drug test all our CDL drivers.
Guess what the piss test consists of? it has the ability to test for any substance used to mask Pot, goldenseal being one.
You failed, and will not be getting the job. it must not be too important though.
I have absolutely no problem with anybody who smokes, as my husband does regularly, and he has for years. The only problem I see is the guys who b**ch and moan about not being ableto get a good job, but smoke anyway. If you can be happy doing what you are doing for work, then you're all set.

Answer 5

Don't be surprised if it comes up positive.. that stuff stays in your blood for a good 30 days. Plus.. if you really do smoke every day like you said.. it means your body is used to the THC and probably doesn't get rid of it as fast as a person who, say, doesn't smoke as often. Goodluck with passing... i think?

by the way.. i hope you aren't applying for a elementary school teaching job or something like that.. haha.

Answer 6

The second hand smoke will definately be in your system but should be well below the 50ng mark unless they smoke in a closet with you in it and lock the door Don't listen to all the haters that seem to just want to put someone down, like their lives are so great...Hey jessicada...do you support your husband or is he a busboy somewhere? Just wondering

Answer 7

Well from the sounds of it, your gonna get the wrong answers on your piss test. Here's a good bit of advice, GIVE THE CRAP UP!!! Why do you need to smoke that stuff anyways. It's not healthy for you. Grow UP

Answer 8

I know a woman who hasn't worked for 25 years because she does drugs and knows she can't pass a piss test. So she lives in a travel trailer and on welfare. What's wrong with this picture?
