SHALL WE BEGIN?
So I just got my first job interview in ages, and I'm super excited about the opportunity... but I'm going to get drug tested, and I'm probably going to fail because I smoke weed pretty regularly, including last night. Unfortunately for me, I decided to quit last night (after I got smoked), and I'm being interviewed tomorrow, so I'll probably have to get the drug test done in the next few days, at which point I'll probably fail it.
So that kind of sucks.
But I do have a small glimmer of hope that maybe I'll be able to talk my way past it. I'll tell them I used marijuana recreationally for a few months, but have decided to quit and would be willing to submit to another drug test in a month or so. I think the key is getting in front of this story and making it into a non-factor. My only fear is that, even if she understands the position I'm in, there will be literally nothing she can do about the drug test because the company won't hire anyone with any flags.
What do you folks think? Do I have a chance with this plan, or do you think I'm going to have to eat an unfortunately timed piece of karma pie?

You're basically fucked. Most companies have a strict screening process and they won't deviate from that at all. The only thing that might save you is they'll interview all candidates first, mull over the options, giving you time to clean your system out, and if you're chosen for the job then you'll get tested. That's what happened to me but if they test you tomorrow there's nothing you can really do.
I don't think they're going to test me tomorrow, but they're going to give me the paperwork to get tested tomorrow, and usually you have to do that within like, 2 or 3 days of them giving you the paperwork.
My only hope here is that I'll be able to talk to the HR lady about it. I can tell her that I dislocated my elbow a month ago and smoked weed for a few days to deal with the pain after my prescription for pain killers ran out and I didn't want it refilled. I mean, that's not true, but I'm willing to lie in this case since I think I'd be a good employee for them and I'm quitting smoking anyway.
This is just a really unfortunate time in my life to be learning lessons the hard way. I have nobody to blame but myself for learning this lesson the hard way, but I'd still rather just put this chapter of my life to bed and move forward.

I think GNC sells shit that completely cleans out your system. The stoners in my high school swore by it. I mean, if they do the hair test, you are fucked for a long time, but if they do pee, the GNC stuff might help.
Yeah, but I'm not investing more time and money into this than I already have only to fail anyway.
I hate that I'm having this conversation right now. I never wanted to be this guy, but here I am.
Excuse me while I wallow in self-pity for a bit.

Smoke a joint to mellow out.
Update: I rescheduled the interview because of the intentionally vague: family emergency.
The emergency? My life fell off of course for a few weeks. I just need to take down my sails for a few days and gather myself before I'm ready to set sail again.
These boat metaphors doing anything for ya?

Yeah, learn not to put mind-altering substances in your body.
Now excuse me as I go enjoy some nice beer.

Well, not ones which you know full well will exclude you from many jobs.
Trick is to get a job first, then you can take what you want. That said, never saw the appeal with weed, I am laid back enough as it is, "so laid back he's horizontal" is the phrased thats always used about me anyway, so once I get high I am just a zombie, although less interesting and my heart rate always feels dangerously low.

This is a pretty accurate description of me.
Ironically enough, I'm trying to become a mental health technician.
From here down will be the end of this episode of, "JGlass publicly airs his dirty laundry." I had a really rough morning and I just needed to let it out a little. Sorry for taking this thread in a depressing direction, I'm sure we'll be back to whatever debauchery we discuss in no time.
I don't entirely agree with that statement, but in my case this is my fault and I'll be okay. I have no doubt I'll be fine eventually, I just need to grow the fuck up already, which sounds difficult but I don't think it will be. I've surrounded myself with pretty good people, I just need to make better decisions for myself. Not smoking weed and getting a (real) job would probably be the place to start.
Several reasons, but the most prominent one being that I don't want to.
Well that's what you get for seeing a Ridley Scott movie. Fassbender was solid in it, though.
Now why would you say bad things about Ridley Scott?
You're going to tell me that Alien and Gladiator are bad films, aren't you?
No. He's made some great movies, but more often than not he's made crap.
Err, G.I Jane and Prometheus?

What about that Counselor thing, was that as bad as I heard?
