I have to take a drug test for work in a few weeks. I just smoked weed last night, should I be worried? I hardly ever smoke..so shouldn't I be ok?

It all depends about the content in your system. If it is low, then it can clear in like 2 1/2 weeks if you drink a lot of water. For me, it takes about a month(when I used to smoke alot). It all depends on your body fat content and the amount of thc that is in your system.
Do this. Don't smoke at all till your test and drink alot of water(not just fluids, but water in particular). And on the day of your test, drink a gallon of water. The first couple of pisses will be a little dirty(assuming your system still has thc in it) and the rest will be mostly water. The test will either have you listed as clean or inconclusive because of the water content. Either way you are good. They will either excuse that and place you as passing or give you another test which will give you more time to clean your system.
Take care!

It is recomended that you wait 30 days or more.
2-3 weeks is usually enough.
If you are worried you do have some options.
You can try one of these products: http://www.passyourdrugtest.com/
Some of them work and others don't and sadly it is hard to know which ones do before you buy one.
A better thing to do is double your water intake for the week previous to the test.
The day before the test drink a ton of water, 5 times as much as you normally would.
On the day of the test:
Drink a llot of water in the morning and pee as many times as you can. Take some niacin, drink some vinegar (any kind) and some cranberry juice. Those things don't "remove" the thc from your system but they will make the ph balance in your urine go cuckoo.
Drink more water.
Pee several times BEFORE you go in to give your sample.
By the time you get there you will be peeing out urine colored water and you'll be fine.
It is tremendously unlikely that they will do a blood, follicle or spinal fluid test, those tests are very expensive to administer and not really practical for most employers. If they do however for some reason decide to give a more conclusive test, Refuse to take it. Tell them that you are a severe belonephobic (someone who is deathly afraid of needles) and act very nervous. More often than not they will flip the script and order a urine test rather than try to argue.
Remember a lot of employers only administer the drug test so they can say they have a drug free working environment. They just want it on paper that you werte tested, by them, and passed.
Good Luck !

I'm not gonna sit here and point fingers or judge you. You're asking a legitimate question, even if it is illegal. Anyway, it depends on how often you smoke. If you smoked last night but it was your first time or even your first time in two months or so, you'll be okay. However, if you smoke weed on a regular basis and you have a test coming up you're screwed. You'll have to go and purchase some pills. You can even do a full detox if you have the time.

Boy there are some mean people on here.Sorry you got such a bashing for asking a simple question.I would think that since you don't smoke often that it won't stay in your system long.I have heard that if you smoke regularly it takes 30 days to be out of your system I probably didn't help much .Good luck!!

Depends on your metabolism and diet and body size and other things, but I don't think that you'll have a problem if you don't smoke often.

I've heard it can take upto 3 months for all effects of cannabis to clear your system, I suppose this depends on your metabolism etc, but I'd steer clear of taking any more just to be on the safe side.

You should. Alot of it has to do with weight and diet. The THC clings to you fatty tissue in your body. So naturally the less fatty tissue the less places it has to cling to as well as it being released out of your system quicker. DRINK LOTS AND LOTS OF FLUIDS!!!

THC Takes about 30 days to exit your urine and blood, several years on a hair sample. Good luck!
