Neruul: About now, you most likely are wishing you had some hair missing on your head! Surely, you will get more answers with more information. In the meantime, I doubt if your company is looking for past use, as much as current use. 8 months, provided you weren't doing a great deal around the holidays-most likely you may squeak by. Surely, any company wants a present user or send you to "rehab" prior to dismissal, anyway. And they know you went to college-assuming it wasn't that long ago! Everyone seems to try it (for the most part) while in college. You won't be the first or last! Good Luck to you and keep us posted! PR
