Pre-employment drug test for municipal job- hair or urine?

heavy machinery
Firstd1mension asked:


I was just offered a job with a municipality. It’s a confidential/managerial position (office work- no heavy machinery or driving). I’ve never had a pre-employment drug test before, even when I took a job with the State! Has anybody taken pre-employment drug tests for a town or something similar? Do they usually just do a urine test, or do they go all out and do hair testing too?

Thanks!

    Its probably ***. The second answer is if you do it every day, it will take 30 days. The third answer is drink 64 ounces of water a hour before you pee, and take 1 vitamin b and 1 createn.

    Why are you so worried? Guess you are not “clean”??? I hope they can find someone who deserves the position, because you sure don’t!

    @ CD don’t be so mean

    Due to budget constraints because we are sick of paying taxes, it is usually urine. Hair is expensive so used by few companies.

    Good luck and congrats

    A lot of companies do that—not only municipal,but any government jobs,bank jobs or any company dealing with money and investments.It takes 5 minutes and all you do is just *** in a cup.Then it takes 48 hours to process.Easy stuff…no need to worry unless…you have been doing something.

    Usually it is urine. By taking a hair sample they can tell if you use drugs weeks earlier.
