Hi guys,
I'm after getting a new job and I maybe drug tested... About 2 weeks ago I had 1 joint.... Just the one... On average, I'd smoke once every 2 months and I'm 5'10, medium build... If I was to be tested, would I fail????
Cheers

Only a home THC test would accurately answer that question for you - far more accurate than speculation from others in this forum.
was lookin at wikipedia and that says it shows up between 3-7 days after use... If you had to estimate though, would it be a yes/no??? :)Quote:

See, I've seen loads of different things around the place. Some places have said that the test would only show up positive, if you had smoked within a week to 10 days, while lots of others have said a month etc.Quote:

Because getting/keeping a job is of utmost importance, I dont waste time with guesstimations or cleanup timetables, especially from 'encyclopedia sites' in which any Tom or Harry can post, modify, and edit. Test yourself with a home THC test if you really think this job is important to you.Quote:

Niacin is a myth. It does nothing to rid the body of THC. Sweating doesnt help much because very little THC is excreted via sweat. The rest is being excreted via the urine and bowels.Quote:

Detox products are a big scam. They are an overpriced way of accomplishing the same thing that can be accomplished for $$$ less by following the guidelines outlined in the Dilution sticky thread.
Perhaps the conflicting information youve encountered should be reason enough for you to home test yourself, so youd know for sure. Its only logical.Quote:

What does your company policy state?Quote:

No it wouldnt. You cannot test positive on the basis of secondhand smoke.Quote:

If i did fail what would be my next course of action?
You can check the company policy to see if an Employee Assistance Program is offered for employees who test positive on a U/A for the first time.Quote:

But tbh, I don't even know if there will be a drugs test... Is there anyway of actually finding out?Quote:
