I never thought it would happen that so many people are on so many kinds of drugs, they can not pass a normal drug test to qualify for a job.

A urine drug test is the most commonly used test when job applicants or employees are screened for illegal drugs or alcohol use. ... Drugs that are screened for in a typical urine drug test for employment purposes include amphetamines, cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamines, opiates, nicotine, and alcohol.

Best bet is if you are looking for a job go clean from all substances except dr's orders medicines; for at least one month to totally be clear to pass.

Notice I did not say give up all drugs permanently. Only you can decide that. Addiction is a horrible thing. It must be the decision of each individual to make to succeed. You will know when you are ready to try.

Stay Safe Always

I would never work for anyone that required me to take a drug test. Being a wage slave is bad enough without working for someone that insists on invading your privacy.
