I am in the job market and was wondering what your strategies are?
Honestly this has always been a serious source of stress for me. Pot is a true medicine to me that really helps with my particular issues. As both a chunky person and daily smoker its very hard for me to abstain for the ~two months needed. Even then its not gurenteed out of your system right?
So I always went with synthetic and its always a stressful day going in and hoping for the best somehow worrying I'll get caught and jailed. I hate it hate it hate it.
Now a days I hear that because medical is so normalized lots of companies either don't care or have policies for it. I hear stories on the internet of how people just straight admit in the interview and ask if its okay. Do any of you actually go for this strategy?
Detox never seemed right to me. Combination of snake oil marketing and flushing out your system really fast seems sketchy.
The way drug test are implemented has never seemed fair or put in place for a good reason beyond company insurance policy requiring it. Coke heads, alcoholics, pill poppers, shrooms munchers, cigarette smokers, none of them get shafted like us pot smokers do on the piss test. Its kind of unjust if it targets one demographic way harder than others.
If a prospective employer wants me to piss in a cup then that's a pretty big red flag that I'm not going to be a good fit for that culture. Trust works both ways. Also, it's just plain weird.
Depends on the job. My old one just did it to keep clients happy and ignored weed. The owner said he wouldn't do drug tests at all if it wasn't required by their contracts.
Yeah, if your company does government contracts then they probably need to do a cursory test just to keep up appearances.
