Don't go running to Sec, she can't help you now! You're still screwed!


Or maybe someone is messing with you because you've asked about a million questions already and they thought giving you a small coronary would be kind of funny!

No you're safe but wrong. One vial doesn't mean straight to GC/MS. Why does everyone think companies want to waste money. One vial usually means no split sample, no split sample means you can't pay for a second lab to retest your donation. Immunoassay is significantly cheaper than GC/MS and almost as accurate so why waste the money and cut into profits? They use GC/MS to verify non negative immunoassay results, that's it.

Are you sure she checked the pH? That sounds odd.


I'm not so sure that you didn't get the 100 ng/ml cutoff on immunoassay for THC which would be easier to pass but regardless, you gave them a liquid that has no drugs in it and passes all validity tests. They can test for 5 drugs or 200, it doesn't matter. Why sweat it so much? That's why I knew I could drop the people's elbow on you and get a good laugh and normally I get on people about messing with posters in the drug testing forum but I can see you are checking the thread often so I thought for 20 minutes, what the hell.
