    Great. Another wannabe who decides to quit weed "when I decided to get my CDL".

    Swell. Dandy.

    If that was your only motivation for quitting, please stay away. Thank you.

    Don't think there's much of any help for you to be had... Short of time passing.
    In this industry (in case you didn't already know) you're subject to drug testing *AT ANY TIME.*
    If you think there's the slightest possibility of failing your drug screen, perhaps you should consider an industry where
    you won't be subject to it.
    Perhaps try with a smaller carrier who doesn't much care who they hire.

    Best of luck.

    Whoops. Sucks to be you. Next time, grow up. That's the way it is. Thousands of guys and girls pass the drug screen because, ready, they don't do any drugs. You should have thougt about that.

    I'm with everyone else. You're not 17 anymore. You're an adult with bills and responsibilities... The time to start acting like one was last July. Now it seems it may have been too late, but perhaps not. Sooo, best start acting like one now and quit doing drugs.

    you did not waste your time or money on the s.a.p.you have to go thru the program per dot regs.like the one guy said check the the local companies.stay away from the large carriers.there are some companies who give a 2nd chance or are not dac/hire rite members.so use your tow experience and your own judgement on weather to mention it,depending on the company.don't listen to the perfect angels about giving up or waiting 5 yrs.or flipping burgers,i am a firm believer in what we do on our own time is not anybody's business as long as your not high or drunk behind the wheel.btw(op) you did'nt say where you lived.either way good luck.from the freedom fighter.

    First off, you shouldn't smoke that stuff. This will haunt you for several years. NO company will hire you for at least 5 years since you failed a drug test.
