this thread has been hijacked by moronic judgement and the impulse to cyber argue rather than answer any questions.
any of you compelled to give the dont do drugs speech rather than answer the question are at least slightly brainwashed, and kind of assholes. And you are no smarter of a person than those who do take their drug use too far, you simply obey the law.
0n a side note, poppy seeds are the seeds of a plant matter that directly produces heoin; yes if they are not properly washed they can produce a positive result. They reduced the threshold for a positive result to curb false positives, but the truth is if you collect enough of them you can even make a working morphine concoction that will actually get you high in addition to failing the test. (the makeshift mixture is highly unpredictable and dangerous, not recommended)
Now that ive addressed what this ridiculous thread has become. ill take the time to answer the actual purpose of the thread.
Lowes saliva screenings are company standard and at all facilities (logistics and operations). Unless there is a law in your particular area (I have never heard of such law, just spit balling) then you can expect a swab no matter what.
I have personally failed one of these screenings for pre-employment (presence of marijuana) , thought I waited long enough to be clean. Surprise... I was wrong). they said I could reapply in 6 months, but I figured they would put me on a do not call list.
I even posted a thread asking if they would ever call me again. I got the same "your an idiot" speech and nobody answered the question. You condescending fucks at your keyboards must do this to boost your self esteem because you all sound exactly the same.
Fast forward to 6 months later, I reapplied and without even completing the mandatory questionnaire I was scheduled an interview within 48 hours. currently waiting to see how that goes. So if you fail pre employment, you can still try again.
I know this thread started years ago but I'm addressing Reannae_Lynette for the benefit of future readers.
Reannae:
you really left alot of holes in your story, you didn't even say what you failed for. you called quest and they couldn't tell you lowes pays them? its hard to answer a question that lacks grammatical sense. you could have eaten a legitimate pill that wasnt prescribed to you. I guess what I'm saying that the premises of your story don't add up, and that I'm not entirely sure I believe that you have considered all possibilities.
quest calls you to tell exactly what they find, and to offer you a retest for $200.
THIS IS NOT THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE ANOTHER TEST.
they will simply mail your failed spit swab to another lab so different hands test the same specimen.
