Fresh out of high school I got a job working in the same grocery store as my then girlfriend (now wife), i had to take a drug test to finish the hiring process. I stopped at the grocery store to grab the paperwork and as I walked past the bakery they had fresh poppy seed bagels, my absolute favorite. I grabbed one and then went the next morning for my drug test, failed for opiates.
If a opiate addict went clean for 72 hours for a drug test they would be in very bad shape by the time they get tested again. It would be completely obvious that they are in withdrawal. They would be very anxious, shivering, vomiting, and shitting.
Retesting after 72 hours is a pretty good indicator that someone isn’t using so long as you also observe physical symptoms.
Yep. Drug screen popped for heroin. Happens all the time. You’d think they would have figured out a way around it by now in the screening.
But it’s only the poor that have to take drug tests. So there’s no incentive to not ruin their lives.

Should have said, yeah but they’re your opioids.
You should get bonus points for supporting the business drug dealing operation.
There is a way around it. Check again after 72h.
How long does it take for normal opiates to pass through? Because if they’re the same it doesn’t really indicate that it was from Poppy seeds.

Plus failing a drug test is an automatic disqualification from future employment. Nobody is going to give you multiple chances to pass.
I stayed up all night studying for this drug test! You gotta give me a 2nd try!
That’s why you don’t tell them they tested positive the first time. You can also likely tell by the levels in their system.
Mmm that salad was good, let’s get another.
If you’re eating the salad more than once a week you’re a psychopath and I don’t want you working here anyway.
Plenty of jobs for non-poor have random drug testing as well, for instance some jobs that are DOT regulated in the US, like flight crew.
You misunderstand. To the people making these decisions, flight crews are “the poor”.
We’re all just filthy poors to them.
