Is it really that hard to just not do drugs long enough for them not to show up on a test?

when it's medically prescribed as a replacement of sleeping pills, etc? kind of my dude. Think compassionately.

Then can't you get a drs note to explain why it's in your system?

If this question wasn't asked so frequently (not just for Maine health, it's been asked quite a bit for similar companies)

Be open and upfront about it. Don't try to hide and then try to explain it. If the employer still has an issue, you can look elsewhere for work!

Hospitals get federal funding, and cannabis is illegal federally. If you explain yourself, it won't matter.

A Dr note will not work for jobs that have federally mandated testing. It's still illegal at the federal level

Sadly weed stays in your system longer then any of the hard drugs 4-6 weeks depending on how much body fat you have and such.

Sometimes hard to plan a month and a half in advance for that.

Most hard drugs is 3-5 days .

Who the heck wants to come off their meds for 30 days in order to take a pre-employment test if they don't have to?

You are an idiot if you think they only test for illegal drugs.

And no.. a note from your doctor ISN'T usually good enough.

You're an idiot for assuming I don't know what drug tests test for..

However, I figured since weed is legal in state, a drs note would help.. as for other medications, are you trying to say nobody with a prescription for real drugs that are included in drug tests can work then? Cause I'm pretty sure a drs note would help them explain WHY it's in their system...
