Pre-employment drug screening

Im getting really stressed out because i applied for a new job the other week and i defintely have the job,but i have to take a drug test. The dilemma is that it's a hospital job that requires a physical and a drug test. They do the testing and examination in house.

I have myself a whizzinator,but im not sure if im going to be able to use it because i have a physical the same day as the drug test and what im assuming is they give you the physical and then ask you to pee. Now if you have to go to another room to pee then i guess i could ask to get a drink and slip into a restroom to strap it on. This job is really important since it will help me gain more knowledge towards what im going to school for.

The last time i smoked was friday 1/12/07 but it was only about .4 grams of some immature bud off the bottom of my plant not very potent.(the only reason i smoked it because it was my birthday it was late and just got off work, i figured i needed some birthday treat). The last time before that was on new years and was only a couple hits, and the last time before that was two weeks prior.

Ive really cut down on my smoking since ive started growing ive found i dont enjoy smoke if the quality isnt there. I took a pre-employment drug test over the summer for a retail position and during the time i was smoking at least once a day for the past 2 years and it only took me less than 3 weeks to get clean. I have an athletic build with less than 6% body fat and a high metabolism. Im not sure when my drug test is, but its within the next two weeks. Im going to step up the water intake, get some excercise in this period, increase my caloric intake, and make sure i take my daily vitamin. I know about taking the vitamin b12 before the test and making sure im adequately hydrated. Im sorry about the long post im just nervous and trying to provide as much information as possible. Any other tips and suggestion on what i should do are welcome.

yes you are correct in how vitamin b12 also helps they also got drinks at gnc and other vitaman stores that cleans out your system you might want to look into that. IF not you can always flush your system out with drinking plenty of water . Ive also herd of people drinking vinegar to clean out their system.

I have been stoned on the day before and recently on the day of a drug screening. My most recent job was with a hospital that included a physical. I assume that you are pursuing a job in the medical profession. I am in school to be a nurse so I got a job at a local hospital as a clerk to help me learn more about the field I was trying to enter.
All I did to pass the drug screen was to drink a couple gallons of water. I was pissing clear urine after drinking so much fluid. They also didn't do the hernia test and make me drop my pants. The nurse giving the physical also gave the drug screen and she only felt my abdomen for hernias instead of the usual "drop your pants and cough".
I have used Terminator Gold in the past before everyone was testing for adulterants in urine. Now I prefer to drink some Red Bull and lots of water.

Best of Luck in your job and career!!
 
thanks nubie, yeah im going to school to be a pharmacist. Right now i work in a retail pharmacy, but i really have an interest in clinical work. Im applying to the inpatient pharmacy and getting in would give me a real feel for what hospital pharmacy is all about besides it would also mean a slight increase in pay. It would also make my labs for school a breeze. I wouldnt have been worried if they didnt require a physical. Im guess ill go and buy a drug test at the pharmacy at the end of the week and see where im at. I think ill hydrate the day of the test and take enough vitamin b12 so my urine isnt clear, but i might some clean urine in a film canister with me wrapped in a hand warmer just in case no one watches me piss.

Ive seen some discussion that the swab test might be more stoner friendly than a piss test for a preemployment drug screen....

Ive heard that the mouth swab will only fail you if you have been smoking in the last 2 or 3 days....

anyone want to confirm that????

A mate of mine was stopped by the cops in his car and given a saliva swab... he had smoked plenty of bongs that night but result was clear :smoker:

He did say he had been drinking pineapple juice though...
 
yeah im not worried about getting arrested or anything i just want the job. I mean its not the end of the world or anything, but ive been trying to get this job since march. I just figured they did off site testing and i had no idea about the physical as well, it kinda shoke my plans up.
