Well my dad told them that he uses this brand of mouthwash after the fact and the guy was like "Yeah if you use weed you wouldn't even come in for the interview" Mind you my dad was 56 when this happened. He's almost 60 now. He got the job and still works there.

Good for him, and good to know he still has a job. I probably wouldn’t even know the mouthwash would do anything, so I’d probably have been let down.

That's surprising. Alot of drugs pop false positives on drug tests. Hell they should have told you not to eat poppy seeds for like two days before the test.

Well it's Listerine it has alcohol in it. But the guy was so weirded out that it tested for weed that he was just like "You're hired" lol

I am constantly amazed by the whole drugs test for jobs in the USA.

Sure, I can see it happening for some jobs. But I've never had a drug test.

Which is good, because I consume a lot of grass :p

That’s probably a good tactic for passing the test with drugs on. I think the guy should’ve been more careful, though. Not to say your dad shouldn’t be hired, but... it’s a little careless, don’t you think?
