Drug testing

Please let us know what the results were and if you got hired & with whom. I'm sure many are curious.

 

Before going into trucking, wait at least SIX more years, (till January 2019), staying TOTALLY and COMPLETELY 100% drug free as of today, for the rest of your life. In the next SIX years, get both as physically fit and nutritionally fit as possible. Rid your body of as much impurities as possible with both intense physical exercise, proper eating habits, and drinking enormous amounts of water and herbal teas to flush your body of all impurities, which will probably include drug residue.

I suggested SIX years because this will also give you much needed additional time to also maintain a CLEAN record, (MVR, credit report, legal matters if there are any, and all personal affairs). For you, the biggest task is to TOTALLY & COMPLETELY clean out your body and keep it that way!

In SIX years from now, you will be able to go to any trucking company of your choice and NOT have a single worry about any type of physical, physical fitness test, or any type of drug screening test at all. All the hard work that you did to cleanse yourself and otherwise prepare for driving a truck will be behind you.

God bless you and your family! God bless the U.S.A.!

 

Question for "gifted777"

Do you have the self discipline to both get off of drugs and stay off of drugs? If not, truck driving is NOT for you. You must have your head on straight and your wits about you. It might not be a bad idea for you to find another line of work.

Just make sure that no ones life depends upon your judgement if you decide to stay on drugs. This may sound harsh, however, taking drugs makes you a liability to other people, a dangerous one for that matter.

 

I was a TPA (Third Party Administrator) that managed DOT-regulated drug testing programs for companies for years, and I can tell you that all those "liquid detox" and shampoo products that you're wasting your money trying to use are not likely to help you pass a drug test.

I'm not judging you at all but if you must "smoke weed" or do any other "illegal drugs" then trucking is not for you and you need to find another line of work.

BTW, if you'll visit the link in my signature line below, you'll find lots of information on DOT drug testing.

 

I wouldn't even take the chance....

 

Hair follicle testing can trace up to 6 months. Shampoo wont help lol.

Find a different company.

 

Good luck to you!!

 

Just to add to the mix. If you fail a pre-employment drug test many companies will send you walking. So make sure you take some bus money if you are going to fine line it. Like others said prove to yourself you can quit. This isn't a factory job you clean up for 30 days and go right back at it. It's a safety sensitive job that you can end up in jail under certain circumstances. You have to be willing to play by their rules.
