So I got a potential job offer coming up and its my "dream job" even though I have a BS (pun intendend) in business management and the degree means no more to this employer than that I might be smarter than some of the other candidates. And of course this job does the dreaded hair drug testing, at least that is the least I heard. If I had gotten the news that they were hiring possible as many as 10 new employees and it was 2 weeks ago when I had been on Sub for 2 weeks, damn I'd been a lot better off (even though I had smoked some weed throughout that time, plus some benzos a few days before I was back on dope).
Now to elaborate on this, I do not know when they are going to send out the interview invites, it could be next week or not for months (they send it in the mail). Once I get it, I have 2 weeks to responds by walking in and signing an acceptance to the offer. It really sucks and right now I am just needing to get off the dope, but won't be able to do so until next weekend. Then I gotta wonder if they test for bupe, b/c nowadays its such a commonly abused drug. Kratom has come to mind as a possible replacement, there is no way they test for that and its still legal afaik.
It just really sucks, the hair tests are such bullshit. I guess I just gotta try to get as long as possible under my belt without anything in the system. Wait about a week because all the dirty hair isn't exposed for that long, then shave it all off. Hopefully by the time the test comes I have enough clean hair grown to pass. I don't just have dope to get out, either. Also clonaz I have taken 1-1/5 mg for 10 days and smoking some strong bud, though I only take a few hits when I smoke. Still I think it will put me over the cutoff with its potency and somking a few times everyday for a week or 2.
I would do the methadone thing, too, since it would be an easier transition that might work quicker, plus keep me from fucking up. But I think they test for that and this particular job probably wouldn't consider someone on maintenance.
