marijuanaaaaa.

No, I think you should tell them that you smoke it on a daily basis so you can see how fast they reject you for the job.

No. Because you will only get deeper into the lie if you keep lying. Plus you would be a hypocrite if you said that you didnt use.
What would be better is to just stop using and then continue your job.


katydint
No.
It's in the past, right? You may have insight that helps you in this job description...tell the truth.


Tina Marie
Sure go ahead a tell them, I'm sure they would like to hire a Baboon.

Of coarse not. Always be honest with everyone! Besides if you're given a hair strand test they'll find out anyway...


Erin
probally. i mean if your a detention officer your trying to punish people for doing illegal things. Marijuana is illegal and you would just be a hypocrite.

Definitely, ummm....depending on the situation. If you don't smoke pot, I wouldn't tell them that you do. Also, are they testing? That's a sure way to ge tthe shaft.

You are a BAAAAAAAAAAAD boy.


theyguy
No. See you at Wal Mart.

Like in the movie " Forest Gump" " Stupid is as Stupid does ".

No of course not. They will more then likely respect your honesty and always remember your not the first one to use it. There have been people who have applied for secret clearances in the FBI or CIA who have done it. Best you tell them, then they rather find out about on their own. I am an international affairs major and will be applying to clearance jobs soon and the FBI told me that it's good to be honest, especially for the lie detector tests.


Thomas D
Why lie about it? because you know they are going to require a urine or hair sample for drug testing anyhow, So If I were you I would just admit to them that you smoke pot on a daily basis and you see how quick they'll tell you sorry no way

No,
you should either quit, or tell them in the first place. if they find out after they hired you, they're gonna fire you, contact other companies, so your future could be doomed.

Good luck

You could just stop doing it, then that would take away the illegal part of the deal...
