scared about my future

[PA student]

I am in school to be a physicians assistant and I also am a pharmacy tech at walgreens. I smoke weed, no biggie, but lately I've been really into benzos. I worry about how this may impact my career with the easy access to drugs.

I also have to take a drug test and I will be starting work in June when I graduate. If I am hired now will I need to take the pee test now or later?

To put this directly -- in terms of your career, it could annihilate it (not to mention, send your arse to prison for an unspecified length of time). You're wise to be thinking about this while there's still time. I wanted to be a pharmacist at one point, but decided it would be wiser not to.

What, are you planning on stealing drugs or something? If you want to do benos, fine. Just don't steal them from your work. And you're in PA school...why would you get addicted to benzos and risk it all?
