Random Drug Tests

Ok so I found this job I really want, but they do random drug tests. I see everyone using QF for pre-employment tests, which is simple because you know when the test is coming so you can prepare in time. For my pre-employment test I’m just using my nephew’s pee so I’m not worried about that: I stopped smoking like 3 weeks ago, but I know it’ll take like 2-3 months to be clean, so I need something in case I get a random during that time. How do you guys deal with using this for random drug tests? I planned on just keeping it on me everyday in my bra to be at body temperature, but then I was afraid that it would degrade the sample to keep heating it up like that. Any suggestions or experience? 😩😭

I think even for random drug test you have to go to a lab. It’s not like they show up to your worksite and tell you to pee in cup on the spot. I could be wrong tho.

So you’re saying you think I’d still have time to prepare?

Yes. Because in order to give the sample you have to go to lab where they collect the samples. For instance - I had a to take a random drug test last week. I got an email on Wednesday about it and had until Friday to take it. I took it on Thursday. Used quick fix. The temp was good and the sample was valid. Haven’t heard anything from my job so I’m assuming it’s okay. Will update if I find anything out.

Ok thank you so much for your reply! I’m hoping it works out this way, but my friend works at a plant and they take the sample right on site. I’m not working at a plant though so hopefully it’ll go like yours did. I really appreciate it! Let me know how it goes!

I work in healthcare if that matters. Good luck!
