Recently I filled out an application and the question was have I ever taken drugs? I answered no but should had said yes, the problem was in 1999 I was asked to take a radom. Test came back as positive for cocaine.
Employer confronted me with this and asked if I ever use cocaine and I said no way. I found out that a day before that I had a begel with poppy seeds. Not knowing anything about cocaine I was re-tested and all way cleared and ok.
Point is always answer yes and if asked explaine the resaons to make your case. Over the many years I have taken hundreds of drug screens and radoms never had a problem never thought that one time was important but was wrong.

Just answer the question honestly. It was "have you ever taken drugs". Why would you answer yes if you claim you have never done drugs?! You cleared the second test so no reason to lie and make yourself look worse.
