First congrats on the job. I once upon a time thought I had a great deal, also right out of college. I ended up slaving for 6 years getting the "top performance raise" of 1.5% per year. In the end, my 'cherry' deal started going to hell, I was working 90 + hours a week, titled as hourly, but getting paid as if I were salary. When they told me thier bottom line was more important that the birth of my kid, I told them where exactly they could fuck off to. Not trying to stress you, just be sure to keep your options open, don't be afraid to 'hire' yourself into a raise and make that 40K into 45 -50K after a couple of years experience in the field. Also hold off on that Beemer, make some money, save some money, and make sure you're solid. Depending on where you live, 40K isn't really all that much, but it'll buy a decent Chevy car.
As far as the drug test, sounds like they're serious about that shit. I was working for a company that specialized in security for the federal government, they too had random pisses. I didn't smoke until my last year there, but once I had it with their bull shit, I hoped they'd fire me (saddly they didn't.) Anyway, get some 'at home' tests for $20 at the pharmacy. They're private and instant. Once you no longer register on them, then I would take the $40 lab test to see the results. Also if they do folicular testing, I'd go to a head shop and get the shampoo that's supposed to wash out THC, I have no idea if it works or not, but it's a CYA.
I don't want to be a kill joy, I hope you have a great time at your new job and they're not flaming assholes likes I worked for. I opted to go back to college and get an advanced degree or 3 (2 maters and hopefuly a Doc.) Then I plan on being really educated and unemployed.
The good side, no-body pisses students, I'm smoking almost 1/4oz a week on slow weeks and up to a half when I've got supply, I also am showing up to class wasted and still pulling A's. IMO piss tests are just another form of corporate control of the American people, and they have no bearing on a persons ability to perform their tasks at work, in fact I work BETTER high. As I result I shall never take one again, but then again I passed them for 15 years after I got out of college without any detox at all, now it's my time to play and stop giving shit about keeping up. Then again, I also carried my wife for years, it's her turn to be the bread winner.

I remember my job piss test . they sent me to a clinic that specializes in just testing for drugs. I had my clean friend piss in a squeezer tube of hand sanitizer. I brought hand warmers and taped them to the out side of the bottle. wore some boxer-briefs and threw it next to my junk.
I end up squeegeeing the clean piss into the cup. i hand it to the nurse and she replies its not enough. Im like fuck that's all the clean piss i have. she then replied that i better hurry up because the temperature must be at the right range for it to be valid. with nothing else left to do i pissed in the cup up to the line. i was freaking out.
I ended up passing but dam that scared the shit out of me.

think positive sounds like u got what they want
or they wouldnt fly u in
ok so it's been a solid 2 weeks since i last toked. haven't even touched the stuff, gone near it, or been to any environment where they might be clouding out the room and i happen to be standing there...
there's only what i understood to be a blood drug test standing between me and this job. wish me luck.

just finished an at home urine test and the result was a preliminary negative. i haven't started the heavy water drinking regiment i'm going to do before D-day which will be on wednesday....
this is in no way a 100% sure assurance. so i'm still pretty much shittin bricks..... but i am somewhat relieved.
i seriously hope this means i'll pass and get this job.

yup. there was two lines on the sucker so i'm a little bit more positive.... the second one was pretty damn faint though.... lol.... and in the reviews some folks are talking about how they had negative results on this test then got fired for failing.... my guess is that they went into the lab early morning... i'm def. gonna go after taking more than 3-4 pisses....
i get the official paperwork tomorrow, so i'll know for sure what i'm facing...
i could've sworn the lady said blood drug screen though... but if you can believe it when we were talking right when she was talking about the background and drug part of the pre employment process the call broke up, so i didn't really catch what she said, and i didn't feel comfortable asking: "so what type of drug test are we talking about here??" .....
needless to say i'm VERY NERVOUS....

Sounds to me like you are talking yourself into the whole thing. Its not me that you must convince. If giving up smoking is what you choose - then you so choose. Sadly, as you said, its for the money. And $60k is not that much money. Maybe you should reevaluate your wants and needs.
