I have to quit smoking pot tommorow.

Man, this really sucks. I am a teenager that makes straight A's who smokes pot, has dreadlocks, and piercings. Tommorow, I have to stop smoking pot so I can get a job. I will wait a month before applying and then who knows how long it will take after that. This really sucks. And they'll make me take my piercings out and everything. Damn.

 

I know the feeling I had a job where I had to stay "clean", and I did - for years. All I had was my memories to reflect upon over that time. That lasted up until I retired two years ago. Now I can make up for lost time!

Hang in there... it gets easier the longer you go.

 

It has always pissed me off that corporate america feels the have the right to dictate what we do in our personal lifes. They do have the right to not want you high on the job, but wtf, there are alot harsher drugs you could be doing and pass their tests in a matter of days.

Hell, they don't even test for the thc which I believe doesn't stay in your system that long. They test for some byproduct that stays in your system much longer.

Just hope when you do find employment they don't use your hair for the test.

 

and this is why i will never take a job that requires drug testing. it's their loss if they don't want you just the way you are (dreadlocks, piercings etc). as long as i don't go to work high, it shouldnt matter.

the right job is out there.

 

Are you a boat or airplane pilot?.. I never understood this logic.....
UPS- FedEx both hire junkies.. Ive worked for one and work partically for the other.. There is no way the cleaning people are not on drugs.
The one cleaning dude where I work now is always telling me"going to get home get me a dime, and blunt and be blazed" and im the police there.. haha. So I dont know what these jobs have people doing that they need to invade their privacy..

 

Most of the little part time jobs in my city just do a urine test one time and then that's it. I have a group of friends who have jobs and smoke. I'd hopefully be able to smoke again by February or March.

 

Yeah, it's called self employment, I'm getting closer to that goal everyday, but I've been hearing rumors that the boss is a real ass and is considering starting random testing

 

That's actually what I did. I tried to have my own business. As you can tell by my username, I play guitar. I play very well for a junior in high school, and I have the capability to teach. I charged the lowest prices in my city, 40$ a month, and I could only find one student. Now, he told me he can't take lessons this month because of "Holiday Expenses".

I really need a way of getting money.

 

Yeh what he says, fuck that, what you do in your spare time should be none of there business, its not like that over here, back when i used to work in asda or walmart you guys call i worked friday saturday and sunday i was mad into extacy at the time and i worked in there in some states lol still sweating, eyes like saucers paranoid as fuck i had to leave in the end lol proud i lasted a whole fucking year in that hell hole though.

 

Why-when marijuana has so much potential to help this world-does the man have to strip us of our right of happiness just to attempt to support ourselves in a corrupt and broken economy, babe? :|

Meow..

 

Employers pretty much call the shots here. I've found that workers have amazingly few rights within the work environment.

 

Yep, I went through the same thing. I took a break from smoking for almost 3 months while looking for jobs so I could piss clean. I eventually just permanently took out all my "offensive" piercings because it was too much a hassle to take them out and put them back in after work, they were all getting irritated and sore. But I gots bills to pay. Sucks, I know but ya gotta do what ya gotta do. At least my employers don't do randoms so as soon as I cleared the pre-employment screen I've been back to good old :sifone: I don't go to work high and I'm one of the top workers at both my jobs so really the only thing that could go wrong is if I get hurt on the job and go to the hospital and get piss tested (although it's happened before and nothing ever came of it but I did work for a rather liberal/hippie company at the time). But I will try my best...

 

Sounds like you got ass raped by the system.
The only problem is why do you need to quit smoking pot for this job? that sounds bizzare to me, Iv been smoking since grade 9 and i dont intend to quit! Im currently in University and still smoking pot, doesnt affect me for shit...and i smoke that kush :sunny:

 

I won't have to completely STOP smoking pot. I just have to quit for like 2-3 months so I can pass an entry drug test. I'll wait a month before putting in applications, and then hopefully I'll get a job before too long.

 

^BRAINWAVE!!
find a friend who doesnt smoke, make sure they arent on any rx meds that may make you fail the test, get them to piss for you, continue smoking dankz until you find a job, when you find a job and you know they require a piss test, get that piss from your friend..and pass the test...simple.

but then again, i dont know your specific circumstances man.

 

It's an easy pass if you are able to maintain the friend's pee at 98.6 until you take the test. I guess you could get a thermally-type bag and strap it to your leg or something. I wouldn't do it if you can't guarantee to maintain the pee at the correct temperature... that's the first thing they test for when you hand the cup back.

Otherwise you can always dilute your pee by drinking tons of water and loading up on supplements starting a few days before the test to color and replace the creatine and other nutrients they test to make sure the pee is real/unaltered. That's basically what all those expensive "detox" drinks do.

 

Man, this really sucks. Haha.

 

just score some of your friend's piss dude!

 

I recently heard about a "MORALITY CLAUSE" that someone in the southern part of USA had to sign.
They also HAD to give their boss access to their facebook page...

Now, if they were a teacher, or a doctor, or a cop or something...even then I;d be pissed...but they are none of the above/

If they tried that on here in Oz....well....it would never happen

 

just jerk off in the cup when you go in, hand it back and tell them to tell your would-be employer to fuck off
