    And my next question is , if they have to immediately retest me, why would they make me wait until monday morning to see about safety hold, almost a week has gone by

    And from what I understand the 2nd bottle is used to retest if you dispute a positive or for them to confirm a positive. Won't help them at all other than to confirm you had too much coffee that morning. To get any type of result they will need a new sample.

    Not sure how your fleet operates, but this isn't life or death, they probably want to wait until the clinic is open or the collector on staff is there.

    Ok that sounds very reasonable and true because I imagine if I was positive they wouldn't let me still drive after the mro called right or wrong?

    A vitamin 'b' pill will put color back in your wee wee if your a big water guy...def need to as 'flushing' is a known common way to pass a drugtest...They will always suspect fraud when they see clear..
    Crappy store bought multi-vitamins will color up the pee too as they are not absorbed because they are cheap and crappy...You will have bright bright wizz

    That's correct, if you where positive they wouldn't let you drive, your urine sample was just simply diluted so much that they couldn't get any results from it, specific gravity as well as creatine levels, labs check for more in urine than just drug use, if it's diluted the company really can't fire you because you didn't test positive for drugs, they will just make you re test but I would get ahold of the safety manager and do what you can to get a re test asap

    Who gave the drug test?Probably one of those tabs on the specimen bottle broke which will cause it to be diluted.
