Just failed my test and lost my job

Im pretty disappointed in myself. Yesterday I started my new job making $24 an hour (fuck yes) and today I got fired for failing my drug test. I knew it was coming, I stayed clean for a week in advance, and I used the grape flavored "Omni cleansing drink" the morning of the test.
When I was on probation 10 years ago, the drinks worked. Every single month, never got a positive. I dont know if their testing methods have gotten more advanced or what.

what was your job?

24 dollars an hour is enough to use someone else's pee...Shit, for my 13 an hour job I took someone else's pee, put it in a ziploc bag, wrapped the shit outta it with duct tape, and jammed it up between my thigh and my nutsack in for an hour before the test to get it to body temperature...

I'm sorry, you blew it buddy, that sucks bigtime...24 bucks an hour is a dream job these days...

Yea that's unfortunate man. That's y I always have single mj tests at hOme so you know how to prep yourself. Who drugs tests after a job I feel like most do it be4, unless it was random or you came in looking ripped.

I had so much faith in the drink. Now I know, an expensive lesson learned.

My test was friday, first day of work was yesterday, and I got canned right after lunch today.

This morning I was reading the new employee manual, and almost every paged emphasized a strong anti drug use policy. Random tests every 3 months, etc. It just wasnt meant to be.

you had a choice and it was not the job ,no tears for you here

Maybe he didn't know he was going to be getting drug tested, he said he quit a week in advance. How do you know he knew about the test earlier than that? He stopped and tried to pass it, that's what counts.

i appreciate that

TWENTY-FOUR DOLLARS AN HOUR?!?!

I'd quit smoking marijuana in a heart-beat to have that as my hourly pay!

Sorry to hear about losing your job!

I guess it isn't the end of the world for you, though, since you have the credentials to find another job of that type... hopefully you'll land one, soon!

Peace!
