What should I do?

[silasfarmer]

I have a final interview for a summer internship next week. Nowhere on their site, or in the pre-employment materials does it say anything about drug testing. That said, I haven't smoked in a week, but smoked pretty frequently before then.

Should I start prepping/flushing my body for a drug test now, or should I just buy a bottle of quick fix around the corner for $20 if they ask for a test?

I would pick up a home test kit and see where you stand. If your dirty I wouldn't risk diluting to pass the test, especially if your not going to be observed. The Quick Fix is going to be your best option and you can continue smoking.

Thanks Deige. Are there any recommended home tests (CVS/Walgreens) that are as accurate as a pre-employment drug screen? I'd like this one (which bears no consequences) to be as accurate as a lab-administered one.

The test kits from Walgreens, CVS, or even Walmart are very accurate kits. If you can pass one of these you'll have no problem passing the lab test.

Thanks a lot. I'll let you know how it goes. I appreciate the input.
