Over the past four years I've been in a good situation -- while I really, REALLY wanted a new job, I didn't need a new job. I had the time and ability to be patient. My patience and prayers have been answered.

In about three weeks, I'll be back in the TV industry, video editing and writing, spending a lot less time at work. AND, I finally have not only a reason, but a NEED to move from this town. A bonus I just realized, since I'll be a lot closer to the city when I move, my HD antenna will work a LOT better! PBJ

too bad that last cocaine binge will make you fail your drug test and lose you the job.

You should go smoke a bowl to celebrate.



On a side note, I had a friend (more of an acquantance than a true friend) once who landed a job out in Eugene, OR. On the drive out there, him and his girlfriend apparently smoked a lot of weed. He was surprised that he had to take a piss test when he got there. So, of course, they were stranded out there with no job and no money to get back to KC.

Cocaine is Water Souluble and is Metabolized within 72 Hours

So just the Coke will not fail him.

Its those damn Barbituates

You could still light up. Just use someone elses urine to take the drug tests.

Drugs aren't my thing. Haven't even smoked a cigarette in almost a year. Haven't had a drink of wine since Thanksgiving.

I don't think that will be a problem.

Man, I can't believe that no one has made a Whizzinator joke yet.

Good luck on the new job, FMB.

Don't have to use the whizzinator, just the dehydrated urine they sell, like $15 a vile.

Damn drug tests, they never detect the real bad stuff.

The pot-heads are kept job-less, while the alcoholic coke-heads are ruining managers' lives everywhere.

Unless they do a "hair" test. They can tell if you've done cocaine in the past year or so

Thanks, guys! It's been a long time coming.

Oddly, I'm going back to the company I worked for before the one I just quit (it wasn't a bad parting last time, I was going to school and couldn't afford the drive while I was in school).

Congratulations on the new job. One quick word of advice to send you on your way. When you secure this new gig, whatever you do, don't let your boss catch you surfing The Planet and checking out one of Rain Man's "College Parties" threads. It can cost you a raise.

Your friend,

Congratulations, and good luck.

However, was there some possibility that you'd fail the test?

Only if it was somehow tainted.


Heh.... I said taint.



No. There wasn't. But nothing was official until I was cleared. Now it's official, and I've been announced by the station as the new guy.
