I might be working for Sam's Club in Dallas, Texas really soon.
I am going in for an interview in about 2 days.
I recently took a hit of marijuana with my friends last night, and smoked a little about 11 days ago as well.

They are mandatory drug-testing.
If THC shows up on the test will I be arrested,
or just declined of the job?

Also, what can I do to clear up my system...fast!

Denied the job depending on how anal the company is.

They will not call the cops. Having THC in your system is not illegal unless it impairs you.

There are some products you can buy to attempt to clear it up. I can't vouch for them. I have never used drugs so never tried them, but my friend has and he got the job.

You obviously don't think you should be smoking that crap or you wouldn't be concerned. First, you cannot be arrested unless you are being tested by court order. Second, most companies test for a certain level, like 47 T's on a scale they use. If you are lets say a 38 and they are asking for a test of 47, then you will, come out of that test with a negative result, even though it is in your system you tested lower than what the company was looking for. Each company is different and some have a complete no tolerance law.

As for clearing up your system, if you take any of the junk on the market, it will show up in your urinalysis as a false negative, meaning forget about the job completely.

Good luck and keep your head clear. Is smoking that crap really worth all this stress?

No you wont be arrested but you can say good bye to the job. Youn can only be arrested if you are caught selling or having the stuff or intoxicated in public.

There is no way to clear the system but time. You can test positive from 3 days up to 90 days (depending on many factors; regular users can test longer than "one in a while" users). Since you smoke twice in 11 days is almost sure that you will need more than 10 days to clear your system.

People try many home stuff and they all fail, it's a fact you can't trick the tests. Just pray for the best, maybe be you will be lucky.

I don't know of anyway to clear your system. Some do hair tests instead of urine, and if that is the case, they can test for drugs that you have taken up to seven years ago. You cannot be arrested, but can be declined of a job.

Idiot. You need to sweat THC out. That can take a hell of a long time, depending on how much you smoked. Even if it was a little bit, you'll still have it in your system. I doubt you'll be arrested (though you should be) you'll just be declined the job. Maybe you should've thought about the fact that you needed a job and this might've happened before going along with your shithead friends and doing something stupid.

if you do a test then and from 30 days your in trouble pot can stay in your system for as long as up to a few years but traditionally 30 days it all depends on your fat ratio, drinks lots of water although nothing can take it out except for time at least you ll be detoxing yourself good luck lab technician at our VA hospitals

they are looking for someone who is clean...you are not...so to take the test and try to pass it when you are a drug user would be a lie. find another job that does not do drug testing...because these tests are very accurate..and, you probably will have random drug tests in the future (even if you pass this time).

#1 QUIT USING DRUGS!!! They will not have you arrested, but you may be passed over for the job.
