A goddamn drug test to attend school?
#18761843 - 08/26/13 10:42 PM (10 years, 5 months ago) |
|
|
I'm enrolled in a few classes this semester - two of which are A&P 1 and EMT 1. I've just sat here for a few hours studying only to read that I have to pay $93 within the first week of my EMT class to take a drug screening. The fuck? I've spent so much time and worked so hard to even get back into college and now they are going to drug screen me for being there (I smoked a bowl two days ago). Thoughts?

Its common knowledge that all EMTs get screen'd before getting enrolled in...... this goes for most health professions that involve with you dealing with life and death.

I've been enrolled in a program in the past and was never screen'd. I'd understand for clinicals in EMT2.

push it off by telling them you dont have the money and then once youve pushed that as long as you can tell them theres no way YOU are paying for THEM to drug test you, that might push it a little farther if things go right

They never drug tested us when I took a WFR course. And it was my understanding that they didn't drug test for any other med-tech courses they offered (from Wilderness First-Aid, all the way up to Wilderness EMT). I would think that's up to your potential, future employer to drug test you... not the school that you earn your certs at. That's pretty gay, I gotta say.

The drug test will not be observed..they won't watch u piss. Go to local head shop and find Quick fix synthetic urine. I used it for two years, and they were sending mine to the lab. The bottle it comes in has a temperature gauge so its easy to keep body temperature. If u know someone who will pee for you RIGHT before the test, this will also work. Good luck and fuck em, your gunna be a fine EMT. If u so choose

Exactly this.
If you knew that you were enrolling in a class to be an EMT, you should've done the research beforehand, and you'd know that you would be drug tested.
The only thing you can do now is use one of the many methods out there to mask your piss, use fake piss, etc... If you are planning on becoming a person that is in charge of other people's lives you should start trying to be more responsible asap. Good luck.

^ true. Most labs can detect the synthetic urine now. If it's a for real lab test I wouldn't take any chances. The stuff I linked earlier is real powdered human urine, guaranteed clean, it's the same stuff they use to calibrate the machines. expensive but works every time. best option if you don't have a clean non-pregnant friend to piss for you

The new quick fix doesn't test positive at the lab my outpatient used to send it to. But who knows maybe since then they can test for it.

More responsible? You don't know anything about me. It's ludicrous that I have to be screened for drugs to sit in a classroom (Id understand for clinicals) I've also researched the program and saw nothing about it - a past program didn't require it either. Excuse me for being irresponsible for smoking a bowl Saturday night after work - guess I shouldve gotten shit faced instead.
Thanks for the suggestions everyone. Im gonna drink as much water as possible and put it off until the last minute. Also gonna lay off the devil weed >.>

Man its insane how you guys penalize drug use so much. It seems like one joint can fuck your entire future. It seems logical to me that the best way to help someone with a drug problem would be to reintegrate him back into society and have him go back to school or work to make a living. But no, stick every possible obstacle in their way. Getting sober is already hard enough as it is.
I'm sorry, but you guys live in an upside down country where nothing makes sense. I try my best to understand how your society sees this as the right way and I have a very hard time reaching a positive conclusion.

Despite that 30 day thc staying in your system story, I think you can still pass. Get a few gallons of water, and start jogging. Even if metabolite traces still show up in your system for weeks, pretty sure you can flush your shit enough in one day that nothing will come up

I'm surprised to hear that. I've never really heard of people having problems with synthetic except just not having the temp right. As long as it's a good synthetic with all the electrolytes and shit.

True. I am harsh on the US. I miss the days when you ruled the world. I can't remember the last time I heard good news, which sucks. I'm sure there are plenty of amazing stuff happening, but the news seems hellbent on broadcasting only the bad stuff. Eventually, you kinda get in the mood that everything is bad. It's just, I don't know, I see so much potential in the country and it always seems out of grasp by an inch, its frustrating. If I'm frustrated, I can't imagine how you guys feel. You live there. Too much depends on you guys, you aren't allowed to fail otherwise the earth will become a very shitty place.
That being said. Surely you agree with me that drug testing someone that wants to educate himself is a dick move

You don't have to get all defensive. You're right, I don't know anything about you. I also didn't advocate you get shit faced either as you put it.
I just don't understand how I have 2 close friends and an acquaintance taking EMT classes currently that were all fully aware that they would be drug tested at some point in the course. How that slid by you is beyond me
Get over it man. You fucked up by smoking a bowl. That wasn't responsible. I love to smoke weed, but I wouldn't be doing so if I was training to become an EMT due to the laws we must abide by. Not because I agree we shouldn't be allowed to smoke weed in our off time.

The labs can detect many products now days you have to be careful about the products. Some do work they are always trying to beat the test.

I agree, it is. But things like this go on in many countries, even canada. Singling out America for every little thing doesn't make any body feel any better.
Live and let live. Takes a smart person to survive and thrive these days.
