    Default Drug testing question..

    Been thinking about trying a "real job" for a bit, but still dancing part-time..I have heard most places do some sort of drug testing..Im no angel..Anyone know how long certain drugs stay in the system, and if those teas work for the tests?Thanks!

    If you like 420...remember to share! That stays in blood/urine a few weeks, but for urine tests I use a product called "Urine Luck' - tastes like dogpoop but it works. If they hair test (unlikely) you're basically screwed. Hair grows so slowly...the weed stays in there until cut out.

    As for every other drug, I couldn't tell you. I've heard that some drugs are quicker to get out of the system than pot, but not sure which.

    Ive heard that other kinds of drugs can stay in your system for months afterwards.
    When I suddenly left stripping I needed something quick to make me "clean". I used this product call Test Pure...yeup tastes like ass but it works.
    Also, see if the place your going to tests for high kreatine levels.

    There is a product called 'Quickdrop''. Everyone I know who has used it(including myself) has loved it. I have never heard of someone failing a drug test after using this.
    I would highly recommend it.

    weed stays in for 30 plus days if you are a daily smoker. everything else goes out in approx. 3 days, longer if you are a cronic user. most of the test pure type things do work for weed. other drugs hit or miss.

    My Ex-Hubby was an occasional smoker, and with him being in the Navy, they did what they referred to as "Pop Whizzes", meaning they'd pick at random (going by the last 4 numbers of the SSN) who they'd test. Anytime he smoked, he would get Goldenseal (It's available at any health food stores, *GNC*) It worked pretty well and he never had any problems. It does take a day to clean out your system I think, so make sure you leave that window of time open.

    As for the hair test, you'd be surprised at how many employers use that method of testing rather than urine testing. Even Blockbuster Video does the hair. A few months back, a friend of mine got hired there, and went for her test. They took a chunk out of her head. It was underneath and unnoticeable, but still, it was a damn chunk. LOL

    It's amazing to me that to get a "job" at WalMart, Blockbuster, McDonald's, or some other sweatshop, dead-end, minimum wage job you have to go through sophisticated and intrusive drug testing--but in sales and other high paying jobs, none needed. Why is that? lets see, make $5 an hour and get tested, make 6 figures and they don't care. Hmmm.

    ^ hmmmm... that is interesting...

    although, everyone at my company gets tested. From the "lowly", $7 per hour production employee, to the recently hired director of sales. Not sure the statement applies across the board.. if testing is done, it should be done across the board.

    The norm for a job drug testing is for pot. Even if you are in the room while a person smokes, you will test positive. I'm sure you know that.

    If the job, is hardcore on testing and works with a lab for this (alot of companies get discounts when they send many would be employees to a certain lab for drug testing) you could be checked also for prescription drugs. Why? Because you filled out an app. and the company already knows you're answer as th what you are NOT taking.

    Prescription drugs seems to be a big one right now for testing (actually has for years around my area) And always pot.

    Best bet if you want a job, stop the drugs. Or decide what is more important.

    I guess They worried about their employee's getting the munchies and eating all the Big Mac's and French Fries!Go to any head shop,They are suppose to carry the ones that don't fail the Test.

    pam LMAO the norm for drug testing is for pot, opiates, cocaine ,amphedimines and certian perscripton drugs. (dont know the drug family so i said certin scripts)

    you WILL NOT test positive for pot by being in the same room. it might show up if you were in a 4x6 room with no windows or doors and the person smoking smoked like a ounce of weed in there with you.

    This happend to a friend of mine one year. we were at a party that smoked up the room. He was had not smoked but the contact got him. He was getting a job where I worked and my boss came to me and said he didn't study hard enough for the drug test. LOL

    Pot is the real one to worry about. It usually takes a couple of weeks. Crystal and coke do not stay in your system but a couple of days. I am not sure about opiates.

    What kinda drugs are you worried about?

    P.S. This information is just from what I have read on the subject... I wouldn't know about this stuff first hand...

    This is the sure fire way of not sweating a test and the best advise i have seen so far on this thread.
    There are a zillion other old wives tales like drinking 2 gallons of water in an hour,using an unpeeled orange as a supository,while standing on one leg for 30 mins.
    Works every time im told.Only draw back is you pee constantly for 3 days and find orange seeds in yer panties for weeks.
    They now have the techno designer methodes that you can buy at most head shops and GNC kinda stores.Some work,MOST dont.
    Risking a good job or a parole violation just isnt worth it in my opinion.
    As Pam said,you need to decide whats more important.

    You guys want to hear a funny story. I was working one of my many jobs in the past, at this work comp facility that also did drug testing for various employers. This guy around 17-20yrs old comes in fills out the paperwork and everything sitting in the waiting room and everyone in the office smells bleach. So the kid goes back to pee in the cup and comes out gives the cup to me and this other gal who were doing the drug test. So I open up the cup so I can get the sample (we did most drug test in office we didn't send them out) to test and I get this fume of bleach right up my nose. I go into the bathroom it smells of bleach. I take the guy aside ask him if he but bleach in it and he said no that's what his urine smells like. LOL. So I test it and of course it mess up the test as an error, so I send it out to I think it was Quest Diagnostic. They send it back it was bleach.

    I may have many faults, but being wrong ain't one of them.

    Hate to burst your bubble but yes it happened from being in the room. It was a smoke filled room and he stayed there a while. That is the only contact he had with pot smoke.

    Maybe you under estimate the smoking potential for the average TEXAN. Or maybe you do not understand what real pot is. It does not look like oregano no matter what you may have been told.

    Rhiannon is right about Goldenseal. I worked at GNC 6 years ago and people would come in and buy it when they needed to pass a drug test. It does the job.

    When did I become 23 again? 23 is but a vague memory. I would pay a kings ransom to be that young and stupid again.

    I think you may be getting confused with another Gabe who is considerably younger than most of us, Gabe.

    I wonder what happened to the other one? Did he leave for deployment to Iraq yet? I forget when he was scheduled to go.

    yeah Rhi, he's outta here. I think he left around Jan 15th, or so.... I can remember, because he was leaving right around the same time my brother-in-law was.
