Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, one of nearly 400 chemicals in a cannabis plant, accounts for most of marijuana's psychoactive, or mind-altering, effects. The strength of the drug is determined by the amount of THC it contains which varies from plant to plant. Marijuana stays in the system for different amounts of time depending on how often you smoke it, how much you smoke, and the makeup of the individual (weight/height/etc.). THC can stay in a person's body for as long as 3 to 90 days after smoking or being ingested orally.

Uncertain. Depends on what test method they use, which you didn't list here. Your individual metabolism impacts the excretion rate of THC. (Provided that is what you smoked.)
There is a chance you would pass if your use is as limited as you describe, especially if you stall the test around a week.

There are ways to influence the outcome. Do net research and find out. You can also order the same test kit used by most employment screening firms and test yourself first. That is a good idea anyway since there are many lawful substances that can cause false-positives for the most common drugs usually screened.

The best solution is to not smoke, obviously. But, you'll get no lecture from me. I gave it up years ago since it isn't worth the hassle, and my Twinkie bill was higher than me. It took me about a month to get squeaky clean.

Alot of variables in an accurate answer, most of the folks here have covered them. You might pass, but dont try to adulterate the urine specimen. That can be determined as an attempt to fool the test and be grounds for it to be disqualified. There are some test kits at CVS so I understand that may give you a reasonable answer as to whether you may pass. The THC one is 20+ bucks I think.

No lecture, but think about what your doing and how much of a hassle it is if you choose to continue with such practices.

.... just a thought, and no offense meant, but I personally would not want any medicines determined for me or my children from a pharmacy employee that was under the influence of any intoxicant.

Not necessarily, if you drink a lot of fluids such as cranberry juice or you drink something like turbotox you should pass.

Urine tests are the easiest tests to pass.

You will not pass. Don't listen to people who say, "Oh, drink water, take this pill, etc"--that doesn't work, and if they did that and took the test and got a negative result, it was just luck. It takes about 4 weeks for marijuana to get out of your system.

Maybe Not....but you will fail God's drug test.

Obviously you didn't want the job that bad or you wouldn't have been smoking weed.
