Did he say he used cocaine at some point? I stoped reading his posts becuse by looking at them, long winded, repetitive, no paragraphs I was willing to bet it was meth.
/sarcasm on. I mean after all everyone knows that truckers use meth to stay up for two or three days at a time to make loads. So a tweeker would have NP's has a trucker after all he already uses amiright? amiright? All they need is for a brother tweeker to help a dude out and tell them how to get around the system. /sarcasm off
IMHO when somone pops a test like this thire licences should be jerked for at least five years.
Save a target... Shoot a tweeker
Career gone bad?

Well at least I'm not the only one that has difficulty reading a rambling, borderline illiterate, incoherent rant.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one, either.
razorcbl & Ohnoo : Good posts.

We are dealing with truck drivers. No bad punt intended here as I am just as bad, however there is many different background issue's in a truck driver. Please understand many of these guys/gals didn't graduate and many did go to collegue (I didn't go to collegue can't you tell) and many who went to collegaue did not do good in writting, doesn't make them a druggie nor does it make them bad people (I find the best people on this earth are one's who can't spell or write a paragraph). So please lets not assume something bad because of their writting capabilities. Again maybe I take this personal because I am not the best, however there is things I am great at but I don't expect someone else to be great at it just because I am

To the original poster here. You can do whats called SAP a drug program and many companies will hire you on grounds you take a drug test at your expense whenever they ask you to! So this means no scripts etc that are not legal! So there is light at the end of the tunnel, just be honest in what happened and do the drug program. It may suck since you are not an addict, however you must do it & maybe you won't ever be an addict

My problem isnt with his spelling or grammer lord knows mine is horrid enugh. Its with his drug use Im willing to bet next weeks pay that it wasnt a one time deal like he tries to play off. And the only acident is that he got caught.
You can see how he down plays it by compairing the drug to "Coffee"... Big sign of an addict right there. It's not that big of a deal... everyone dose it... -
Drugs are an illness (so they say?) and we should be there for them not be mean to them. Now if you are addicted you should admitt it and we will be here for you, however do not drive that tractor knowing you are an addict
That's the down fall

I agree with you, LogsRus....some people never admit to their guilt until it slaps them in the face..

any kind of drug what-so-ever if their a truck driver or if they just graduated from trucking school. I'm sure they mention in school about alcohol and drug use. That's besides the point !! How idiotic can a person be to even think about using in the first place? Especially a truck driver. It's unbelievable that there are people out there who think they can out-do the system and fool everybody while at the same time risking their own lives, their family's lives, and the public's lives. How would you like it if a truck plowed into a family member and the driver " beat the system" when they took the drug test. Who are they really hurting? They are hurting everybody !! Anyone that thinks they are better than the system in the trucking industry should never be allowed behind the wheel of any type of vehicle what-so-ever. Let them do their drugs and find another line of work.

I have written my story honestly and told exactly how and why I am in this situation that was created only by self-inflicted causes. Sometimes after reading a post that would have seemed as if the writer either ignored or did not understand what I had clearly described prior, I would write the poster and explain it all over again. I do apologize to THOSE who think that I am "rambling", "incoherant rant", [nice try at spelling those BIG words "MXH", its actually spelled--incoherEnt, gee go figure why you could not understand?
], and "borderline illiterate". This is your opinion and I thank you for posting. I have made a terrible error and I am on my way to seeking to correct it. I was merely trying to find out if the technicality of actually being employed would be my way to speeding up the hiring process, as I WILL be employed eventually. I am the only person to blame for MY mistake and I am the only person who is going to pull myself up and right my wrongs. I am not just looking for the "easy way out", I am only trying to be as efficient as I can. I understand that I am an easy target for people to ridicule me, as I have made such a FOOLISH mistake, but I DO accept this fact and I'm trying to connect with someone who maybe has been in my situation and might have some useful information. Belive me when I say..... nobody can be as disappointed at me than myself. If anything at all, this thread could be informative for a new driver of what NOT to do after driver-school graduation.
