As I have posted I have found a great job for me, I just have to hope and pray they think so!
The gal mentioned that a background check & drug test are required for the job - No problem on either front for me (I have never been arrested for anything, I have had only one ticket in my entire life and that was for an over due registration sticker - As far as drugs go, I have never used any illegal drugs ever).
All I had to do for the background check was to sign some papers and give them my driver license number, the gal said it would take roughly two days for them to get the results for that.
The drug testing was a bit more detailed - The gal gave me a paper to take to a lab who does the testing. Looking back now I should have drove right to the lab asap as soon as I left the interview but I didn't. I wanted to map quest the directions and find out exactly where is was located. I got the directions and made plans to go the next day (the interview was on Tues.), Well wouldn't you know it I got there at 2:40 and they closed for the day at 2:30 (I never thought to check the times they were open just thinking it would be 4:30 or 5pm). So now I had to wait another day! I went on Thurs. morning at 8:30am. it was pretty busy in there for being so early in the morning. I was amazed at the lengths that are taken to make sure you are not trying to cheat the drug test. You have to lock up your pocketbook in a safe (of course mine didn't fit so I had to toss it into my car). They tape down the toilet tank lid, put dye in the toilet. Once you give them the sample you have to sign the vile to verify it is yours. I was amazed all that went into the drug testing process. The gal said they should have the results by Friday or the weekend. I was glad I had got it done and just hoped that the job people didn't think I was trying to hide something by taking so long to take the test.
I got a call later that day on Thurs. from the job people asking me if I had planned on taking the test - Yikes! I called them back asap and explained that I had taken the test and I was still very much interested in getting the job. I heard nothing more from them on Friday so I guess the drug test results were not ready yet. I am praying I hear back from them tomorrow (Monday) with good news that they want me. Please if you could say a prayer that I get this job.
I'll keep you up-dated.
Until Next Time - God Bless!!
