I don't think the incident itself gives MJ a bad rap. Rather, people will use the incident to continue to espouse the evils of Marijuana. Fucked up mob mentality. Yet, when school bus drivers get caught drunk WITH kids on the bus, you don't hear anything about alcohol sales.

I've tested in as little as 3 weeks after smoking and passed. That was for my current employer. I was nervous as hell. The lady told me to go to the office to do the test and I tried to stall but it had to be done so I could get into the training class. So I rush down there, nervous as hell. I take the test and it was funny b/c while in the bathroom, the cheap plastic cup breaks! Urine is dripping on me and I'm telling the nurse but she's like, "We have to use THAT sample, you can't retake it". If it would have come back negative, I would have used that incident to ask for a retest. But I think it does depend on the person. My brother in law has to stay clean for like 2 months in order to pass.
