    Hair follicle test can go back at least 90 days or your entire life, urine passes out your system. id wait the 4 months before i took the chance. you said something in your previous post that makes me wanna ask, Have you ever failed a drug test at ANY job?

    I failed a drug test when I was like 17 or 18 for a job in a store and I got a dui when I was 19 which doesn't show up on my mvr and I stopped drinking then but all that has been close to 20 years ago I moved portable buildings for the last 10 years and was never drug tested

    Oh ok well you wont be able to get any job that requires you haven't failed a drug test if they put it on your DAC, How did you get the DUI off your record? btw your fine as long as your urine is tested, and the hair folicle only goes back less than 90 days
