Amazon pre-employment urine/mouth swap test...do they test for suboxone?

About to put an application in at Amazon for their new huge warehouse that opened near me...so many good aspects to their jobs and seems like an excellent place to work at till college is over compared to the place I'm at now...but I'm worried about this pre-employment drug test. I don't smoke weed anymore and quit snorting dope like a couple weeks ago by going on a somewhat small dose of sub just so I keep away (I don't have any plan to go back after either), and I feel/look great since being on. I'm not prescribed but I have an extremely cheap and reliable source for as long as I want so for a little awhile I want to stay on...but they're actively hiring now.
I take like 1mg-2mg a day and I know that some amazon pre-employment drug tests are oral and some are urine from reading online... I also know that while suboxone doesn't show in urine tests, it will if it's tested specifically for. Amazon is a HUGE, MONSTER corporate giant so I'm sure they have plenty of money to weed out any potential drug users. Anyone know if they specifically test for suboxone, whether subs will show in oral swabs, or if any other corporate giants are now testing for suboxone?
Thanks, kinda not sure if I should send this app in or wait until some time down the road when I don't take it anymore.

Best to have a script. If not, you really shouldn't be taking it anyways.
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

amazon is pretty hardcore. i wouldn't want to work there
they even actively encourage employee's to quit. if youve been working there for 1 year, they will pay you 2000$ to quit. work there for 4 years? they will pay you 5000$

Dude, I had and probably still have a problem with dope. I was driving 50 miles to the damn city everyday for a bundle for quite some time, total fucking waste of miles on your car. I used to take weeks off but now it's at the point where when I stop I get withdrawals and shit and the whole cycle drains all my money and I barely feel good enough to put an act on and hold my job some days.
By being on sub I save all my money and I feel normal all the time...plus I'm slowly tapering down so I don't have to jump off with full blown dope sickness. Quitting a low dose of sub for me before was cake. Right now I'm just taking it to keep my mind off and re-train it to not fiend for the whole cycle of going down to score and coming back feeling amazing (I wouldn't drive fucked up, I only felt nice and relaxed...prob drove better). I'm out for good this time, it's really such a downer drug you start to realize after awhile and holds me back from so much.Quote:

Lol, why? No offence but did you suck or something? What corporation asks people to quite I must be missing something. The job reviews on glassdoor look phenomenal too..
EDIT: I misread, looks like you didn't work there and heard this through word of mouth? Still, I just don't understand...but like I said I'm prob missin something simple

Ya tbh i saw a help wanted ad in the paper for the new warehouse and they made it look they had amazingggg jobs to offer and its the place to be. What caught my eye was it said it would pay for up to 95% of some college major even if it wasnt related to amazon which i thought was weird but definitely interesting. Im not even sure if i read or understood it right but i liked everythin else anyways so i figured id figure it out later if its true.

I wouldn't think they would test for subs, but like you said they are a huge company with lots of dough to spend on that kinda stuff. Subs have a long half life too so it would be hard to get out of your system in a couple days. Have you tried googling to see what kind of drugs they test for? I also would like to know because I've never heard oF drug tests testing for suboxone.
Have you thought of maybe trying to quit for a week and substitute subs with something like kratom or tianeptine? I quit subs very successfully using kratom, it takes a few days for your body to adjust but it worked quite nicely for me I was using a good amount also.
Anyways good luck man, can't hurt to try. Unless you plan on working for them down the line sometime and they have on their records that you failed a dt. Well good luck I hope it goes good for you whatever you decide to do.

I really appreciate it man...and yeah I just went through a 4oz of kratom bout a couple few weeks ago...it does definitely help lower withdrawals and help you quit. I might go this route if I can't quit sub in a few days...thanks for the reminder, seriously.

Ya that link basically just made me worried more, said it's becoming more common for employers to test for suboxone now. Youd think they wouldn't waste their time with it because its a maintenance drug for keeping your shit together but maybe they want to completely weed out anyone whos ever had the slightest opiate problem

I con't have enough time to research it now, but I know since it is a maintenance drugs some places don't test for it/won't disqualify you for it, if it's just a hot test though you'll probably pee dirty for opiates.
I would either spend some time on google or just take in someone else's clean urine, they don't watch you piss for pre-employment drug screens.
