In limbo....(my drug testing saga)
I am a 30 year old male about 5'6 130 lbs. I recently received word of a Job offer for a position paying more than i've ever made in my career. However, I have to pass a drug screen (UA). My story goes i stopped smoking after the interview i had with this company at the beginning of November. The type of company it is, i knew i was going to be drug tested, but the worst of my fears (HAIR TEST) had been put to rest. So I went the entire month of November not smoking except for a few pulls on the weekends, when i knew they weren't going to call. I figured that since i wasn't smoking regularly it should clear my system fairly rapidly. Finally after over a month of waiting they called me, offering me the position! BUT i had been smoking the whole weekend before of some good weed that had me nodding out! I was shitting bricks! I had given up on the position because i thought they didn't give it to me, it turns out they were just slow about getting back to me. What's more, they were now offering me more money than they initially offered! :jawdropper: There was NO WAY I WAS LETTING THIS JOB GET AWAY FROM ME! This job will allow me to solve 99.99% of my problems in life. So I got word of the offer on a tuesday. I conveniently told them i was out of town but would cut my trip short. I had a week's time to take the test. here is the break down:
Tuesday- I smoke a quarter of a blunt, and got the word of the offer. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED SMOKING and started drinking water and taking a herbal supplement cascara sagrada that makes you have bowel movements, along with raisin bran cereal. Needless to say I spent hours with bubble guts on the toilet.
Wednesday- More cascara sagrada raisin bran and water, more bowel movements.
Thursday- The same as Wednesday. I took a home drug test for THC that i had, FAILURE! So i upped the water and cascara sagrada.
Friday- I went and bought three home drug screens from the drug store. In addition to starting to jog and jump rope in an effort to speed up the detoxing process. I kept doing the cascara sagrada and water and fiber.
Saturday- Jogged, did the cascara sagrada, started drinking gatorade and started eating beef, to prep for the dilution process. I took a home screen I passed!
Sunday- More Jogging, and cascara sagrada, more gatorade. ate more beef for dinner and even bought some time release nicotinic acid (500mg) made sure to wash them down with gatorade and water. I took about six of those over a period of 5 hours before going to bed, I passed the second home screening right before going to bed.
Monday- The day of the test at Lab Corp. I drank some gatorade, keeping the water to a minimum in fear of a dilute result. i DID NOT TAKE AND NIACIN the day of the test. But i made sure i peed like 2 times before i took my final home screen ( a 5 panel drug test- but i only smoke pot) and i passed it. Before going to the testing site, I peed a MINIMUM of three times! I took two centrum multivitamins and two aspirins. And peed again.
At the testing site, I was told to give about 40 mls of urine, I gave my sample mid stream. I could have EASILY substituted because it was in a room unobserved, although they did have blue toilet water. I was told not to flush. Gave her my sample and she gave me some papers.
I've had the experience of overdiluting my sample and get a call the next day saying i had to give another sample. It's been about 2 + days now (Wednesday) and i still haven't heard anything back from either my future employer or labcorp. Im assuming no news is good news. I will update with my outcome as soon as i find out.
Thanks to all who posted their experiences with drug testing! You are my inspiration for creating this post.I hope this helps someone going through the same thing!
