Need advice, possible drug test tomorrow!

I started a university internship this week in a big corporation and was told by the guy who I'm replacing that he went through a drug test when he was hired. Today my boss told me I had to go take a medical exam tomorrow morning, but didn't say anything about a drug test. Now, I haven't signed my contract as of right now, but I read it today and it says nothing about drug screening, just "medical examination".
My question is : According to the law, do they have to actually tell me I will be subject to a drug test or can they disguise it as standard medical examination? I was under the impression that I actually had to agree about forfeiting this type of privacy.
Thanks a lot. I haven't smoked mj in about 8-9 days btw, but was a daily smoker for the past few months. I weigh about 120 lb, 5.5 feet tall and have a pretty fast metabolism and amost no body fat. Should I start drinking water like there's no tomorrow?

drinking water like there is no tomorrow isnt really gonna help you. because who would drink water if there was no tomorrow? not a lot of people.
you'd be better off drinking water like you were going to be dead tomorrow if you didnt drink as much water as humanly possible. remember to pee though. ive read too many news stories of people dying from ODing on water. (i was surprised too)
but yeah my advice is water, water, water and water.

Damn. I was really under the impression that I actually have to agree to the drug test. Guess I'll have to go with plan B: Dilution!

If you did test positive then call them up and say it must've been a false positive. Tell them you're busy until next week and reschedule then...

I went out and invested in the Puck Synthetic Urine. It was expensive and it sucked when I unpinched the tube and the "urine" got all over my pants. I told the nurse I'd had an accident. She gave me a weird look, but I still passed and got the job

Yeah, i would just go with dilution. drink lots of water. also, might try to drink some gatorade. don't wanna dilute all the precious minerals in the body do we (such as salts)? i would also try doing some jogging/running to help get any fats that you have to start going away (also to get the water you are drinking out faster). take a pee or 2 before you go in for the test, and try to have some vitamin C before the test (your piss will probably be crystal clear from drinking so much water).

Aside from that, for people who have had a piss test before. Did your employer tell you when you were hired that the company had an anti-drug policy and that you had to take a piss test or did they just hire you and give you a surprise test? That's really what I want to know. It'll be my first time, so I have no clue.
But yeah, I actually read a lot about it on different forums. To make sure the sample isn't rejected for dilution, I'll take some B2 vitamins to color the urine and drink Gatorade for salts and minerals. I've also heard creatine/creatinine can also hide the fact that your urine is too diluted, but I should have taken that 2 days ago. I don't think I'll metabolize it that fast, so it just wouldn't show up in my urine right?

Well, i don't know much about if businesses ask about piss testing or not, but you probably will be good just diluting your urine and taking the vitamins. on the creatine/creatinine, if you can find it fairly cheap, i would go for it. i don't know how long it takes to metabolize, but it's probably worth a shot. i also read (on erowid i think) that eating red meats helps to boost your creatinine levels.

You might also want to start drinking canberry juice. I heard that helps some but I don't know for sure.

It really disgusts me the number of companies that seem to be doing drug tests, based on what I've read here. Anyway, drink a lot of green tea, or other herbal tea, let it pass through your system then drink a whole load more.
If you're really worried and the job is worth it to you, go with synthetic urine. It's very expensive, though, from all the sources I've seen.

cranberry juice...no drinking tons of water....no
the only way drinking alot of water will help u is drinking alot right before u go take the test, and pee a few times before. u will get a dilute sample, or negative.
but if it was me, i would substitute urine. get some clean piss from a friend, boy or girl, put in a little hotel shampoo bottle, put under your nutsack between your legs. if u want, get some hot hands and tape it around the bottle. as long as the piss is 90-100 degrees YOU ARE GOLDEN!
why waste money on substitute urine? if u can get clean piss, use it.

I don't think I saw anyone mention this but: when pissing in the cup make sure that you get the "Mid-Stream" piss in the cup. Meaning start pissing in the toilet STOP IT, then piss in the cup STOP IT, and finish in the toilet. It will help.

If they won't let you piss in the toilette (to stop you from using this technique) just piss on the ground and say you missed !
