As for a pre-employment drug screen, check with your friends and find where to get a pee kit. Just like the movies, a small container with drug free male urine and a means of delivery at the time of the test slips in your shorts and you're a drug free employee. Every young adult I have met seems to know about these. You won’t have difficulty finding one. Some employers screen for drugs only at the time of employment so one test is it. Some employers' policies extend to drug tests after employment. They are either RDT or random drug tests or scheduled tests. Chances are good the jobs your looking at don't test after your pre-employment screening but find out.
The difference between ethics and morality is action. You may know something is wrong which makes you ethical. Not doing wrong is morality. I have been employee and employer and I personally find drug testing offensive from either viewpoint. It is against my moral principles to invade the bodies of people, or their credit history and such to satisfy my standards for employment. I also have submitted to extensive personal background checks including drug testing in order to secure certain business for the company. People have repaid me with loyalty and some have paid with deception, hurting me, our company, our customers and themselves in this betrayal of trust.
I don't know any employer that would risk reporting a positive drug screen on a potential employee to anybody. It is not my job as an employer to police the public. It isn't why I am in business and any effort to follow the life of a disqualified job applicant is unprofitable and a crime. Reporting a poor soul who fails a drug screening for employment would invite lawsuits and I would bet against the employer, and the media attention could turn talented people away from companies with punitive employment policies. It could be a company's death knell.
A positive RDT or random drug test as an employee is a different issue. The employee rules or handbook must inform you of any RDT policy in writing. In that document the remedies or rules, testing procedures, your implicit permission to a drug test and the consequences of a positive drugs test are in black and white. It should be carefully read and read again by a trusted friend for now. Later in your life when you have a family and career that friend might be an attorney. Your being fired with no notice may be the remedy or the procedure to end your employment. In a "position of trust" a legal term for working with little kids, the elderly or a judge, policeman or Mikky D's playground supervisor could be criminal if something happened and you just failed a RDT. Chances are very good that most of your peers are entering the workplace with the same concern. Nearly all will either cheat or just drink, ugh, alcohol to numb their pain. Just be able to do your job, be prompt and reliable, and always be worth more to your employer than he/she is to you.
Your employment will determine the next step. If “Walsmart” or “Wendals” ran RDTs on employees, there would always be new openings because an estimated 60% of new employees cheated or got clean for jobs requiring a drug test prior to. Truck and bus drivers once were just expected to be on drugs. Today RDTs for truckers keep a pretty clean record. They tend to be certain that no violations soil the reputation of a truck driver. There are many parallels in day care, medicine and technology. To be legitimate after employment, or possibly be excused from a RDT, a prescription for Marinol gets you out of any THC found in the test whether you take the Marinol of vaporize pot.
I get some relief vaporizing pot. To monitor its effects, keep track of your FEV PFT numbers in relationship to your pot use. Two modest bong hits a day isn't bad from my vantage, but it is your lungs and your decision. Use a lighter, never a match. Find or buy a 10X loupe or magnifier to study the pot before purchase. Study an area under high magnification for fifteen seconds, looking for moving critters like mites and aphids. It should be free of tiny bugs. You can also tell if there is any mold growing on it. Next use your nose. A hint of mildew or mold, insecticides or herbicide will be detectable and it's thanks but no thanks. Buy another time or place. This is important and sometimes the pressure to purchase is on you. Save your money and buy more of some clean schist.
Smoking marijuana is approximate to tobacco, in that truly unhealthy tars and carcinogenic products of combustion, or smoke, is inhaled. If tobacco use was limited to a couple bong hits a day, it wouldn’t be on medicines most wanted list but it would be similar to second hand smoke at worst. Keep your bong clean with soap and water and always dump out the water after using it.
I just Googled VapirNO2, the brand of vaporizer I use and it’s now about half of what mine cost. Check out the bargains, I found one on Overstock.com for $90. They are a digitally temperature controlled chamber vaporizer with a 0.004” stainless steel mesh filter. You prepare a little pot, preheat the vaporizer to between 356-360 degrees F. drop the pot in, and draw the vapors into your lungs. THC has a boiling point of 315 degrees F. and CBDs boil between 160-180 degrees C. or up to 356 degrees Cannabidiol (CBD(s)) have most of the therapeutics ascribed to help in MS, CF and other chronic diseases.
It is a thin line legally, but Vapir NO2 is accurately marketed as a medical product albeit for holistic use. It carefully controls the heat in the chamber at any temperature up to 400 F. (204 C.).
It has genuine potential as a drug delivery method for CF patients. In theory, any drug or compound that boils below 400 degrees F. could be vaporized and inhaled. This assumes the drug or compound isn’t destroyed at its particular boiling point, or when it goes into vapor. In addition to boiling off THC-CBDs, antibiotics or “bio-film solvents”, even turmeric if you please could be raised to vapor point and inhaled with this device. Keep it clean with rubbing alcohol.
Please purchase a vaporizer as soon as possible and consider edibles as an alternative.
