Default I'm in a pickle.......... UPDATED 30/9/06




Got informed by my employer that I've failed a drug and alchohol test

On drugs too

I'd understand if it was alchohol As I have a few beers now and then, but I don't touch drugs.... Nor, do I sit around with anyone who does, inhaling the smoke.....

Which brings me to the depressing bit, in order to sort it out I have to attend the Base Physician at the Naval Base on saturday morning to get fully tested for Drugs and Booze meaning I'm going to miss the trip to the 'Ring

Totally gutted. NOT going would mean dismissal, hence I have to. There's obviously been some kind of cock up (normal when you work for Her Maj) but of all the times to have a cock up

When I find who has fucked up my results I'll be paying em a visit

Medscreen, be warned

you might have been spiked rab, might sound daft, but a freind of a freind had a job where he needed drug testing, he failed, never touched drugs in his life, couldnt understand it, then a few mounths later, a guy who was his so called 'freind', admited he'd slipped a bit of something in one of his drinks.

No Mike, as in someone could have put something in a kebab while I'm drunk and I would have eaten it without notice, and hence, actually have drugs in my system...

And I don't appriciate the Moron comment.... I may lose my CAREER here mate, through no fault of my own.... I garuntee if I am discharged I will not be working as an engineering officer again, anywhere.

And I swear I have not knowingly touched drugs since I had a few joints aged 16.

No mate, I don't. But someone could have, hence it could be a possibility.

Yesterday when I found out I was annoyed because I was missing the 'ring trip. Now I'm properly scared I HAVE drugs in my system.


I'll know for sure at 10:30 tomorrow...... Going to get my blood tested.

Depends on quantity consumed, the drug in question and the type of test conducted.

Some drugs dont show up in the Armed Forces drug screening. Cant say here as that would be innappropriate, but not all drugs tests are foolproof as Rabs case has proved.

As in his case a urine test was failed yet a blood test was passed. Certain drugs can also be detected in hair samples.

I was going to offer advice to RAB but he got a good result so its not needed, but I failed a drug test once because I was given ephedrine (legitimately by medical staff) to open my nasal passages for pressurised training and that shows up as an illegal substance. there was no trace of ephidrine in my medical records due to an admin fuck up, so i was in deep shit for a while until the exact person who administered it could be contacted and comfirm what happened.

Bloody good job he remembered me as well, as the SETT when busy can get loads of people through for training in a short period and id be well pissed off if my career was fucked due to somebodies forgetfulness!!!!
