Now, I know I haven't done any drugs. I'm a clean guy. I drink every so often. Even so, I just took a drug test for my new job, and it has my heart pounding and breathing shallow and worried what the results will be.
Is it the kind of drug test where they actually give you drugs? Because that would explain your reaction.

I have the funniest drug test story ever . . . but I can only tell it in person

I had to take a drug test too, and even though I'm 100 percent clean it still had me nervous.

Was there a guy standing next to you to make sure you weren't using someone else's urine?

Remember the old Broadway song?? "The Secret Service Makes Me Nervous" :)

The worst for me is the pee-in-a-cup test. Since I know they're waiting for me, I get wicked shy-bladder.

I drank a liter of cranberry juice before I went. Hopefully, it cleaned out my system enough.

When I took mine a few years ago, I was thinking "I hope no one switches the samples!"

Interestingly it could also be called "intelligence test"... :P Failing a drug-test tells enough about a person, anyway...

Have you had any poppyseed muffins in the past few days? LOL

I had one before my new job, too. And I had, without thinking, taken Benadryl the day before. I was petrified that it'd show up as methadone or something and I'd be screwed.

I think the nervousness says one of 2 things: 1. lack of confidence in its accuracy or 2. feelings that this is an invasion of your privacy.

Valium and percocet are a nice combination to calm you down. Or, you could just smoke a joint, but it makes some people paranoid.

The nice thing about Valium and Percocet is that you can get away with taking those if you have a prescription. MJ showing up a drug test will most likely get you fired.

BTW I love how dumb it is what they choose to test for. But that's another story...

Had to take a test once where a guy was in the urinal with me...at least I thought he was there to monitor my test.

It's the only test I know I can always pass! I've passed it about 30 times over the last 9 years.

Update: I passed my test, which I knew I would. Now, when I said I didn't do drugs, I should have clarified: I don't consider mary jane a drug. But I haven't done that. Plus, I've never been well at ease with drugs tests. I feel like that's the sort of thing to stay between me and my doctor.
