    Default Drug test!??!

    A company I'm applying at is asking for a blood test - drug test

    1. how long does 420 stay in the blood?

    2. if I fail and don't get the job, no biggie, but does this go on some permanent record thing (like FBI file) if I fail a test for a private company?

    1. www.google.com

    2. The FBI doesn't typically tell us what they keep files on...but probably.

    from what I've heard, 420 stays in your system about 30 days. It's fat soluble so it's stored in your body fat. Which would lead me to believe that somebody with lower fat content it might pass through a bit more quickly and vice versa.

    I wouldn't be too terribly concerned about it going on some "permanent file" somewhere.

    Most companies now require a drug test for all of their new hires. I do alot of hiring at my company and as far as I know the results of the drug test don't go anywhere outside the company -- and then its destroyed after a year.

    It is not true that most companies require drug tests. I took a job at a company that did drug test, and of course I came back clean since I do not even drink alcohol.

    But I felt so violated that I quit after a month of working there, and I explained that I quit because of the drug test and how it made me feel.

    It was one of the reasons I started my own company.

    I hear that one D, I actually run my own co but was considering this second shift thing for extra $$...kinda decided to pass on the gig anyway.

    The one other job I took a test for really sucked, this one is a "you're a number" factory job, not really sure I'm into that.

    Personally, I think a blood test is waaaaaay too invasive...

    Actually, I feel any "test" is too invasive. Unless you're operating a school bus or heavy machinery, my philosphy is if mgt. can't tell somebody is on drugs, they deserve to get away with it.

    I've never heard of a company doing a blood test for pre-employment testing before. I know someone who worked at a testing lab and they told me that the most accurate method for testing is hair. No way to take a detox system to get rid of the traces that way. Blood seems very invasive but it's oddly enough, much less accurate than a hair test. I'm told that if you do pot regularly, it will stay in your system about a month. The other question to ask though is how far back they use the test results from.

    For example, most labs don't report details to the employer, only pass or fail. So if the company wants results from 60 days prior to employment, and the lab does a hair test that shows positive use for pot at 61 days, you technically pass the test.

    For piss test, buy Zydot at your local head shop. Follow the instructions precisely, and you will be fine.

    I passed 2 piss tests for Dell that way and I used to smoke the 420 pretty often in those days.......

    but my boss does more drugs then me...... he would only be pissed if I took his... actually I dont do anything right now thats not legal....


    I took a piss test once for a job, it paid 11.50 an hour. I knew I wouldnt work there past 3 months, made it 6 weeks, call centers suck......

    I would never do a blood test though, I hate needles. I would rather just not even show up and keep job hunting.....

    A LOT of companies require pre-employment drug testing as a condition of employment, as well as periodic random testing during employment.

    I don't use drugs but I refuse to work for any such company. IMO, that is b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t.
