Title: Drug Tests Post by: manc red on Friday, January 19, 2007, 22:56:17 Does anyone know how accurate these are? I have to do a urine one next week. I dont smoke weed but my flatmate is a bit of a chimney. Am i likely to fail it through passive smoking?
Any help would be appreciated. Cheers Title: Drug Tests Post by: red macca on Friday, January 19, 2007, 22:58:49 No you wont fail

Title: Drug Tests Post by: flammableBen on Saturday, January 20, 2007, 01:16:27 Depends what it's for, but a lot of places don't actually test it. Especially for job interviews. They just want to see peoples reactions and if they turn up or not.

Likelihood is you won't unless you feel yourself getting high off your mate's fumes. Trust Macca :D Title: Drug Tests Post by: Simon Pieman on Saturday, January 20, 2007, 09:41:46 Incidently if they were to take a sample of your hair, it would take 3 months iirc for it to disappear

Title: Drug Tests Post by: genf_stfc on Tuesday, January 23, 2007, 10:28:42 you can't absorb anything THROUGH your hair; hair is dead, it might smell a bit smoky after a night in the boozer, but it can't absorb things from the atmosphere. What hair does do however is contain traces of what you've injested and there are apparently tests around that can detect certain compounds. I think I heard the 3 months thing before, it sounds reasonable. I think there was something in New Scientist about it a while ago.
