My employer has grown considerably over the last few years and now has a random drug testing policy in place. I drive locally for this company so it will be a DOT type test conducted by Foley Services. I haven't drank in 20 years and smoke weed on my own time over the weekends while camping or after working in the yard. I hate to give it up as it helps me relax and helps with the stress we all live with.The random testing is so new that none of the employee's have been sent yet so reliable information about the collection is still unavailable. I've seen a product on the drug testing websites called
"SPIKE" which is added to the urine sample at the collection site. It supposedly cleans the sample of the toxin (marijuana). It says it's for the EMIT test only and not reliable on the confirmation test (GC/MS). Usually, the process is, the sample is tested with the EMIT screen first and only further tested if the screen comes up positive for drugs (GC/MS). I'd rather try SPIKE than powdered or synthetic urine due to the fact it doesn't have to be heated to body temp and SPIKE is a smaller vial than the urine substitute. A supervisor will drive us to the collection site too, making it hard to use the urine substitute. Has anyone tried Spike on the DOT random test who would like to share their information with me? The sales rep. at the wesite says it may have an odor for about a minute or so after it is mixed, so stall for about a minute or so after the sample is ready to submit. If anyone could shed some light on Spike or any other reliable way to pass the test I would greatly apprecite your time and input. THANKS/PEACE
