wtf is up with these drug tests anyway?
i mean, i could sort of understand it if the job was a cop or an airline pilot or something, but taking drug tests for some random job? do you also get a full body cavity search every time you enter the building?

Any company that does any kind of contract work for the US government is forced to drug test all employees.

Just one more step towards the erosion of all civil liberties!

because you do not consume it in a small time frame and not urinate some out.

I'm sure I drank about a gallon or more during football practice without peeing.

if you are thin and not a heavy smoker 2 weeks is usually enough time to be totally clean. 3 weeks should be fine. drinking lots of water for weeks doesn't do anything and drinking water the day of dilutes the urine. if it is too diluted they make you submit another sample the next day.

Do some acid just before the test to neutralize the THC in your system.

these are some of the worst ideas ive ever heard. just drink this within 90mins of the test and you'll be fine, 100%.

ive had several friends try it now as well as myself. worked perfectly. and that was with smoking heavily within 3 days of the test.







edit to include a thread i made a while ago about having to take a drug test.

It does taste like a 90 yr old anus.. but it does work like a charm.. for safe measure go to your local pharmacy and buy a home drug test to make sure your all good.. i think they are like 30-40 bucks but, the job is worth it no?

What's the ultimate point of drug tests if everybody knows that every pothead can pass it by drinking juice/piss funny? Kinda like being asked if you have a bomb at the airport...

That's not precisely true. Govt. contractors aren't forced to "test", they are only forced to have a "stated drug policy". This came out of the Reagan administration.

Of course, Reagan was a neocon puppet. The laws that allowed such invasive drug testing ultimately allow for companies to downsize by "firing for cause" for simply failing a drug test. This saves a company hugely, as opposed to a layoff where that company is forced to pay unemployment taxes for a layoff.

When an employee if fired for cause (and failing a drug test is such a cause) they don't have to pay unemployment taxes for that firing (and the employee is not eligible for unemployment).
