I’m currently navigating a bit of a stressful situation regarding a job opportunity I really want. I had a great interview for a position, and the manager seemed positive about my candidacy. The only hurdle is that I need to complete a drug screening, and I won’t be available until after Monday due to a family trip. I live in a state where marijuana is illegal, and although I don’t smoke often, I did partake last Sunday. Now it’s Friday, and I’m anxious about the drug test results. I took a couple of at-home tests, and while the first one showed a faint line, the second one this morning was a clear negative. I’m starting to regret telling the manager that I wouldn’t be able to take the test until next week, especially since he’s been very responsive and seemed eager to move forward. I considered reaching out to him again, maybe saying the trip has been postponed due to wildfire smoke, but I’m worried about coming off as dishonest. I’m just hoping they might be willing to wait for me to take the drug screen after I return. I’m trying to stay calm, but this has me really on edge.
