    When I went to school, they tested the applicants before they went to class. Some tested positive and wasted their money.

    2 months will not be long enough for a user and definately not for the long term user.

    Pretty simple.

    There is money in the process.

    There are stupid people driving trucks.

    I see them buying alcohol and going out to the truck drinking. They are up while I am on the computer. They leave in a couple of hours.

    Exactly. Before you spend one dime on school, I'd make sure you get a drug test first. Otherwise, you may be flushing hundreds of dollars down the toilet.

    NOW your thinkin!

    I'd give it another month, to be honest. If you can stay clean and STAY AWAY from weed for that long......... and get rid of your little "garden", you might have a chance to last in the biz. But seriously... if you are growing and not partaking, it's still only a matter of time before you get a toke, or get into a room filled with second hand weed smoke.

    Not worth it.

    Weed or trucking. Make a choice.

    I don't know why you guys keep crying to have this thread removed.

    Even if the O/P is 'trolling', the information and advice we have given in this thread has pleanty of value to the next real "pot head" that may be looking into the industry.

    Stop being a bunch of old ladies. These forums (especially this one), are set up for informational purposes....and this thread has pleanty of important information.

    Oh come on their stuff is so enlightening.

    Isn't it funny that in another thread a new guy whines about the trials and tribulation 's of not drinking. Further how hard it is for him to adjust and how he is slowly killing himself in other manners and the group help crowd offer nothing but encouragement and support.

    This driver says he will quit on his own, just wanted to relay the experience with someone else that might have gone through it and is crucified for it.

    So is it they like alcohol more, or despise an individual more? I lean towards the later explanation?

    Second hand smoke won't make you fail a drug test. If it did I would of failed every drug test I've ever taken in my life.
