    Try a different company this time. Several to choose from.
    Where is your location; which state do you live in?

    Thing to do is call them.Some companies have a no rehire policy if you failed their drug test.But on the bright side there are companies that will hire you.So I wouldn't waste too much time on Prime.

    Don't ever admit to using pot, even it you have a roach clip hanging on a necklace around your neck.

    @Mark Kling can answer that.
    I don't know how they word that. You had already left the company when the results came in, so maybe you lucked out. Same exact situation happened to another central Florida driver, so he didn't mention it on the job applications and was back at work in a couple of days.
    @Jay216
    He didn't say he was "fired", he said he "quit."

    Apply somewhere that's not too picky and see what happens. If it shows up,you'll have to complete a SAP Program (Substance Abuse Program). Google : SAP Program for Truckers in Florida.
    Florida Beauty Express is pretty relaxed, unless they've changed their policies.
    Western Express has refresher and is a 2nd chance company.
    Stevens Transport trains in Tampa. Tampa CDL Training Location:
    8501-B Sabal Industrial Blvd. || Tampa, FL 33619 www.stevenstransport.com
    Vero Logistics in Margate.
    I'm not sure Vero Logistics or Florida Beauty Express even uses DAC, but they might.
