America, the land of the drug tests 2

Being a Canuk I've never been asked or required to do a drug test. With the exception of the sort of job that it really matters for, being a pilot or something, I'd find that a big incursion into my privacy and would most likely tell my prospectant employer where he could put that test.
How do you yanks look at drug testing and how do you get around it?

I hate that almost all jobs require it. Some I can understand but not all. I just use synthetic urine and have never had a problem. On probation there supervised so no getting out of that really.

Yeah it's pretty fucked up. Good old Nancy Reagan shit. There are certainly ways around it though.

Drug tests for employees are an atrocity . If you have to piss in a cup to get A job you are not free. I am grateful that I have never had to and I feel sad and angry on behalf of those who Do.

Sorry real jobs require that you stay sober.
Get a shitty job if you wanna get away from drug tests.

I'm sorry that the only time I need to be sober is when I'm actually at work. What I do outside the workplace is none of their business.

Most jobs don't do random drug testing, if you can't stop just for initial employment thats pretty bad

marijuana can stay in the system for a long time. Especially for people with high body fat %

Ok yeah I agree with you on that one.
And I agree that its none of their business what you do with your free time if you are at work sober after initial employment screenings.

4-5 weeks max? You couldn't stop for that long? I know it can be hard but I've always been able to do it

I don't see why I should have to. What I've done over the past 5 weeks is nobody's business but my own.

So you could or couldn't do it?
Are you employed?

I quit for that long when I was training for my last Aikido promotion, but I wouldn't for a job. I cheated on my last drug test. And yes I am employed.

You wouldn't stop smoking weed for a few weeks for a job?
What if it was a really good job?
