Where did you hear that? Is that for Chinese citizens only, or everybody? I don't use cocaine (I swear), but I am curious.

If you have used it and deny having used it and are still found to be positive I heard you are publicly stoned to death in Peoples Square

That's okay. As long as they don't make me clean the sidewalks. I would request to be marched to the back of the station instead.

Interesting reply. Not sure you are referring to me. If you are, it doesn't really address anything I've posted. I'm not even the one taking the drug test. Why do you use asterisks instead of curse words? Is it against the law or you do you just find it morally offensive?

If he used curse words instead of asterisk the police would harvest his internal organs.

Well, thanks for the advice everyone. However, after reading anon6969's comments, I've decided to give up that job and become a drug dealer instead, mainly targeting the sale of heroin to his nearest and dearest. I feel it is my moral obligation to do so after he offended my moral sensibilities by referring to a crude sexual act - not once, but twice! - in his handle. Anon6969: please let me know your sister's phone number - I've got some cracking stuff here that goes by the nickname of Hattie Jacques Pretentious Cheese Wog, and it goes down a treat with amphetamines.

Post subject: drug screening

In the hospital I'm employed all positive results, are followed with an immediate retest using an alternative screening method (must comply "forceable compliance policy in place"). Unfortunately the hair follicle drug screen is the wholly grail.

Avoid eating poppy seeds or drinking various herbal teas before any type of drug screening test. Poppy seeds contain small trace amounts of opiates and can return a positive test result for opium. Small amounts of amphetaminelike substances can be found in some herbal teas, and can likewise return a positive test result for amphetamines. It would be prudent to also not have any hotpot for up to several months before also undertaking any drug screen tests in PRC, since some hotpots also are laced with opium, or opium derivatives.

Workplace screening tests usually test for the following substances;
-Opiates (including morphine, codeine and heroin)
-Cocaine
-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC, the active ingredient in marijuana)
-Phencyclidine (PCP)
-Benzodiazepines
-Barbiturates

Because these drugs are either illegal or available by prescription only, any drug finding is significant (and in China is notifiable). Read -BIG problems!!!
Because of the serious consequences of a positive finding, drug testing is done very carefully, and positive results are not immediately reported until confirmed by a second subsequent test using different means. Once again the second test is not usually optional, it is a full compliance test. Since we have not had a positive test result for a Drug screen on a foreigner, I cannot say what the outcome would be.

You must also disclose any and all medications that you are currently or have recently ceased taking within a specified period of time leading up to the drug screen.

A large number of prescription and OTC medications including cold and allergy therapies contain decongestants that may react with screening tests for amphetamines. These substances will generally identified by confirmatory testing with a technique known as gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy.

Because of the care with which testing is currently done, a person with a positive test will find it very difficult to challenge the result successfully. The only certain way to pass a drug screening test is not have used drugs recently. Note that recently can mean a large time span!

Specimens that are diluted or otherwise adulterated can be readily identified.

Biochemistry (blood) & urine screening tests can pick up positive results for drugs several days to a week or sometimes longer after occasional use or up to several months with heavier drug use.

Tests for Benzodiazepines and Barbiturates may be positive for several weeks with occasional use or longer with heavier use.
While THC may be positive for up to several months.

Hair sampling results can find trace positives for much longer periods, where blood and urine tests are negative.

Two questions :

a. What company/organisation in Shanghai requires prospective employees to submit to a hair follicle drugs test ?

b. I presume you were in Shanghai at the time, you didn't indicate that in your post. If you were, you definitely enjoy standing on the edge of a cliff, waiting for a strong gust of wind !

Best not to confess pleasurable indulgences like this on a public forum - Nanny has a funny way of finding out who you are.... Dynamic and Static IP addresses, ISP login time logs. Maybe, just maybe you wrote this from an Internet cafe ?

^ but before they shoot you, you must pay for the bullet (which can be negotiated). Next time watch porn instead of doing dope coke. It stimulates the same brain cells and doesn't stay in your system- although you should wash your hands when you come to the happy ending.

A bit like those school killing or black people who can only date other blacks, it only happens in the US. Most of us Europeans or Asians can barely understand what the original poster is talking about. Are we on the right forum?

*Beginners Bad Luck* Did you inhale? Don't worry about your new job, when the Chinese Internet Police read your Post, they will come and get you..My guess its 45 to 60 days in jail and then deportation....

Ive tested all the drugs here and....they are shite!! I wouldnt be worried about the test as they were diluted to begin with! Might show up as baby powder, oregano, hard peat or tic-tacs! lol! By the way this is a line from a fictional book Im writing and Im a fictional character and by no means do I condone drugs or tests. I have a driving test soon and Im scared to try park without a beer and a smoke of some kind in my hand!!
