    Don't put it in urine. It'll get wet.

    The Drug Squad gets notified anytime there is a red flag with these tests.

    Better off to hand yourself in now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,482 ✭✭✭Kidchameleon


    AFAIK if your a light user it leaves your system quicker. About 10 days for you I'd say OP if you only had a few puffs 3 weeks ago. But don't quote me on that.

    Would your work even care?

    Some employers are more concerned about harder drugs. I know someone who tested for THC and their work took no action. Obviously, a lot of places would have a different attitude and legally speaking they usually have every right to terminate if they wish to.

    You cover it up by taking some opiates a week before the test IIRC.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,431 ✭✭✭rottie 11


    How long does it take to get the results does anyone no

    One joint three weeks ago and you're not a regular user?

    You're perfectly fine. You'll pass.

    This reminds me of the guy that was asking what the age of consent is in Ireland over on the Ireland sub at Reddit. When he realized people were upvoting it, he started to panic. Ended up with 4000 upvotes (I believe) and was the only thread on that sub to reach the front page.

    Extreme cases up to 7 weeks, frequent users 10 days dependant on the amount of marijuana consumed & the individuals metabolism.

    Drug testing employees is not legal in Ireland. It's a violation of privacy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,969 ✭✭✭Mesrine65


    The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires employees to submit to drug tests if reasonable.

    These are expected to be implemented only in safety-critical sectors.

    The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, (s.13) requires employees not to be under the influence at work, and to submit to drug tests if reasonable; it is an offence, punishable by fine or prison, to fail to do this (s.77).

    Employer can ask a doctor to check an employee's medical fitness to work, (s.23).

    Doctor should tell employer of decision, and employee of reason for decision, (s.8) obliges the employer to provide a safe place of work.

    I was a regular user a few years back. I smoked a joint and a half around 3 weeks ago. It's dodgy lik but hopefuly I pass because I'm not a drug user anymore it was just a one time **** up

    You should be grand if it was only one or two joints.

    Apparently weed can be detected for longer in hair and nails so I recommend a Gattaca style scrubbing regime to prevent your bosses from getting any illicit samples left behind in your workplace.

    You're probably alright in this case. But unfortunate timing alright. They pretty much do this to ensure that people don't know when they'll be tested and will stay off the stuff in general.

    You can go to a clinic in Switzerland where they hook you up to some lines and equipment and swop out your blood for a fresh batch.

    Great if you're Keith Richards, fúck all use to the OP with his urine test ;) :P


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 52 ✭✭Justice4Adolf


    You could buy a top of the range Merc.
    Whoever doing the test just put the keys and the log book in their
    shirt pocket as a little thank you gift. Nod and a wink.

    The actual answer here is up to a month. A lot longer than class a's and there has been numerous well informed threads if you had bothered to use search.
    That's for chronic use. one spliff probably won't last that long.

    The problem with that would be the test for cannabis isn't going to tell the employer that the person is under the influence, just that they've used cannabis at some stage over the last few days/weeks. So it's pointless giving people the test in the hopes you can use it to fire them.

    Everyone could technically test positive for cannabis whether they've used the drug or not. So they work on limits. At this stage the amount of the chemical their testing for should be reduced to acceptable numbers.
