I??ve been reading these forums since last Tuesday when I got notice I would have to take a pre employment drug screening for a new job. My data:
Male
170lbs
Somewhat active?.I go to the gym 2/3 days a week.
The last time I smoked was the weekend of 420. Friday/Saturday nights I probably had 3 bongs, with a small bowl on Sunday night. That Sunday was the last time I smoked. Prior to that and for probably the past 6 months I have been smoking 2 nights a week (Friday and Saturday), usually 2 bowls a night.
So, last Tuesday I get notice I will need to take a drug test for my new job. No sweat I figured, I??m not starting for a close to a month so I have time. WRONG. I get the official offer letter and need to take my test within 24 hours. This was yesterday afternoon.
So, I immediately go to Wal-Mart and buy two at home tests, a bottle of B vitamin complex and aspirin. I get home and take the first test. No dilution. I used the mid stream and I passed (it was a faint line).
So, this morning I wake up and take the 2nd test first thing. I did NOT use mid stream, but rather the very beginning (I wanted to see the ??worst case? scenario). Again a faint line, but there was clearly a line.
So I start drinking. Between 7am and 11:30am I drank 96oz of water and took 10 B vitamin pills. Also took 4 aspirin, but I left the bottle at home on my way to work so 4 was all I got in. Another data point, I take creatine supplement for lifting (5grams/day). I upped it to 10 yesterday and this morning.
So I get to the testing center at around 11:30 and there??s a huge line. I have to really piss so I sign in and use the bathroom. The piss is vitamin yellow of course. About 20 min later I take the test. I had a fresh piss ready to go by then. I used mid stream, and it was vitamin yellow.
So that??s it. They told me they would get the results to my employer that day if I passed, but if I failed they would need up to 48 hours. They said my employer would call me to give me my start date if I passed, but here??s the kicker?they CAN??T give me that yet because I haven??t don??t the criminal background check yet. So of course I haven??t heard from them yet and I??m a little nervous.
So, what does everyone think? I WILL post back with more info as soon as I hear anything, but for now I??m still not smoking in case I drank too much water and need to retest.
