Tested: Have Rec from Doc.....
So what happens when the test comes back positive? I was offered the position so i had to test. I told the lab tech that i was going to show positive. She said the lab would contact me to see what meds i was on after they found what was in my sample. I had no idea i was going to piss that morning so before the test i chugged a liter of water pissed twice then gave my sample. Piss was clear and i hope diluted enough under the cut-off. I have a Doctors recommendation to use cannabis so i hope they don't discriminate against me. I'm also a Disabled American Veteran. Big companies probably don't give a shit about that once they hear the word "marijuana". I'll post with results of test when the prospective employer calls me back saying "We got your results from the lab, blah blah blah".
I know that a few people who smoke out their fuck it up for the rest of us by doing stupid shit while blazed and then everything gets blamed on "The Devils Weed". I just want to be able to climb up the ladder, make more money and not have to worry about anyone discriminating against me because of the medicine i choose to put in my body. I already have a lawsuit in progress with one company who decided i wasn't the best candidate after they found out i was a cannabis patient. Hopefully the court decides that the company did break the law.
Anyone else have a rec and had to take a pre-employment test? What was the outcome? Appreciate it.

The lab called me and said that i showed positive for MJ and asked if i had taken any drugs or medications in the past six weeks. I told her i am a cannabis patient and she asked if i could prove it. I said yes. I sent them copies for proof and they said they would call me back. When they called me back they said that they will inform the company that i showed negative for illegal drugs. Needless to say i got the job. The system worked for me. Today is such a good day :dance: . You know what comes next? :rasta:

This is what kills me (and no offense to you - congrats!) I worked in a Steel Mill for the last year and a half. The guy who ran our crane carrying 8,000 lbs.+ bundles of steel broke his ankle and was prescribed several very strong pills. Another guy in our area had back problems and was taking strong pills, percoset, vicodin. It was O.K. - the all-knowing doctor prescribed them.
After a few years of testing, drugs can be put on commercials and billboards, the doctor can say it's okay to work while under their influence and we all should feel safe about it. HOWEVER, if you smoked a bowl ( of marijuana - a substance that hasn't been overdosed on EVER in the history of mankind but, there just hasn't [supposedly] been enough testing to decide if it's safe) 3 weeks ago and it turns up in your random sample - you are not even worthy of employment. People talk about you after you are fired like you are an asshole for endangering everyone and consider you a druggie while they pack their lips and lungs full of nicotine and their bellies full of caffeine and alcohol. I finally left my job before I was next to get nailed by random urinalysis but, I feel bad for the few who lost. This world needs to get its head out of its ass. It sickens me how alcoholics frown on pot users like they are filthy druggies when they are just as bad and usually worse as far as behavior.

Glad to hear it worked out for ya !
I believe people should be able to get scripts for med. MJ. wHAT THE FUCK, YOU GOT Dr.s giving scripts for Vidicon and Percocet, they are addictive, but perscribed. I believe its a gov. money racket, further more I have never seen in the paper some one killing some one because they were high on Pot. But alcohol, thats a different thing, when you drink too much and drive, forget it. I really get angry , it aint fair I believe alcohol is far worse than Pot in alot of ways! I am not a big pot smoker, but I say LEGALIZE POT and make alcohol Illegal or at least harder to get , i dunno. Just wanted to give my input. Good luck Stoners! I like my mixed drinks once in a while , like today LOL.
Happy 2006 to you all!!
