Hi everyone.

First I would like to say I don't have a "just smoked and have a test in 30 seconds! OMGWTFBBQ" situation (i love the successful ones), but I do have a situation nonetheless.

I am 5'8", ~200 (gained weight over the months) and African American with short dreads.

I recently got a great IT job down on Wall St. and in the employee application it said I may be required to take a drug screening test blah blah.

Now, the important stuff: I smoked daily with my roomy in college till mid January then quit. In late march I smoked one weekend as a last hoorah and haven't since.

I estimate I've been pot free for over 100 days, but 2 days ago I wanted to be sure because I was nervous about the possible (probable, i know :-/ ) test. I bought a $20 Marijuana test at the store and passed it, mid-day sample, beginning stream.

What I'm worried about is if I can pass a hair test. I know that it stays in hair longer, and I don't really think I can go in to a test with bleached dreads, ya know?

SO, do you think
1) I can pass a Urine test
2) I can pass a hair test
3) or any other test (blood/saliva)

I'm pretty nervous because if i would to test positive, I would feel absolutely terrible and all that unhappy stuff.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated, and for what it's worth I hope to find a job that DOESN'T test because I *loved* being high, if I had a choice, I would never drink again if I could smoke in peace.

Thanks!

You should be fine.
Urine:1 to 60 days clean occasionally longer.
Blood: 3 days
Saliva:3 days, a good mouthwash usually sufices.
Hair: 90 days
So you should have all bases covered. There's always synthetic urine to cover the occasional randoms.
