OK here's the situation: Pre-employment drug screening in 2 days. Last time I smoked was before Leo Kottke which will have been 23 days before the test. I just shared a joint w one person. Before that I hadn't done anything for months in anticipation of this test :wtf:

I've been drinking water like its my job since Thursday and have even taken 2 of those CVS home test kits and passed both times. I think maybe I'm being paranoid because it was such a little bit at the time. Some of the folks on here have real horror stories about smoking chronic for 25 years 420/24/7 and having to go pass a test. But this being my first test, I just want my mind to be put at ease.

The only thing thats worrisome to me is the fact that I'm taking one of those Quest 5-50 GC/MS tests. I know from the home screening I would pass at 50ng/ml but should I be worried about them testing at the 15ng/ml level that the GC/MS has sensitivity to? If so I have no idea how I would do...I would think that with such a small amount (total 6 hits maybe) my size (6'3" 220) and the time (~23 days) I won't have anything to worry about on either test...right? RIGHT?

It's always better to be safe than sorry. Don't worry, bro, you'll pass with flying aces. I think you are in the clear.

So I came back diluted after drinking a load of water last Thursday and that bought me more time to retake it which I did yesterday. I peed twice that morning and once in the shower and only drank 2 glasses of juice beforehand. I barely squeezed out enough to fill up to the line. At that point it had been 4 weeks since I last smoked anything. Even though I don't have the fastest metabolism (6'3" 220) and I haven't got the results back yet, I'm betting I'm fine. By the way, is it me, or does everyone with a question usually have a "really fast metabolism"?

The take home lesson here kids, is that if you come back diluted, at the very worst, they will make you retake it and it BUYS YOU MORE TIME which is the best way to get clean. Last time I checked there wasn't anything illegal about drinking a shit ton of water :thumbsup:
