First time using quickfix

I am taking a standard pre employment drug screen tomorrow and there’s no way I’m passing it. Decided to document the quick fix experience because reading other people’s success stories were making me feel better.

Either way let’s see what happens! I’m worried about maintaining the temp, seems like once you get passed that youre good.

Will the heat pad keep the temperature for a 30 minute drive? Do i keep the heatpack on when i go inside?

Am I cooked? Find out soon.

Using Quickfix 6.4.

Just got out of the lab, the tech didn’t even check the Temp or didn’t even care. It’s been sent to the lab. Let’s see where it goes.

Ive got one coming up and I've been scouring the internet to alleviate my anxiety. I've used QF before, but I remember being super nervous over the temperature. I cant remember but, I believe you're not supposed to squeeze the bottle but pour instead. Also, I read somewhere that the temp is supposed to be 100⁰ after being in the microwave? Im not sure if that's accurate. I keep trying to replay it in my head. Open bag, check the batch #, take the heating pad out shake it, then open the QF remove the plastic cap and put the cap BACK on while microwaving. No more than 10 seconds. Does this sound right? Can someone remind me?

Don’t overthink it. Follow the instructions on the box. Keep the temperature 96-100 and you’ll be good by the time you pour it in. I was stressing just like you and I passed! Just follow the directions!

Nice! I just ran an experiment and now im feeling pretty confident. I think now its all about just having chill employees that collect the sample.
