I went for the interview today, and it went well. BUT!!!! They made me take a drug test right there during the interview. I knew they were gunna test me but I thought I would drive to another lab for that. I was gunna have my friend that looks like me piss for me. Its really a 50/50 chance for me to pass that, drugs usually run right thru my system so I dunno. I just hope a failing drug test doesn't fuck up my chance for a security clearance once I'm eligible for the military.

When did you stop smoking weed?

Coke, X etc.... are water soluble and will be out of the system within days, but weed has a half life of 30 days or something like that.

Good luck with the test man maybe you didnt smoke at the party.

the other half · 03-20-2008, 08:57 AM

not to sound like a parent, but you are the only one that can control where you are headed. we see by how hard you are hitting the weights that you have the abitlity to be responsible and know what your priorities are, you just have to take that next step and say no sometimes.

but also just like a parent, we are here to support you and help how ever we can to keep you in the right frame of mind.

yeah, bro we're here for you.

when i started working out it was right when i stopped smoking. i knew i was going to gain weight, so i headed that problem off by working out. as i was on the treadmill huffing and puffing and eventually seeing progress after months of lifting i realized.. as corny as it sounds.. that working out was my anti-drug

whatever your drug is, mine was tobacco, you gotta find it and use it if you ever wanna beat it.

in 5 days it'll be 3.5 years since i quit smoking.

Yeah, if you smoked a reasonable amount, how can I put this...you're fucked. However, if it was just X, or columbian marchin powder, you will probably be ok. Good luck son.

JailHouse · 03-20-2008, 04:22 PM

I know guys, thanks for the concern. I know what I gotta do now, quit every thing cold turkey (except a little beer now a than). I'm just gunna focus on getting thru my lease at the end of Aug, work, and hitting the iron. I have to many bad influences in my life, I'm gunna start trimming the fat.

Ya, I'm just like fuck it. It really was a shitty job any way, over 15 hr days, no real breaks, so ill just keep lookin.

Those dips really did hit hard. I'm focusing on adding weight to regular bw exercises for a while.

nadirmg · 03-25-2008, 09:06 AM

gj on trying out the hang cleans! great compound exercise!
definitely want to try those when my shoulder is better.

goob · 03-25-2008, 12:45 PM

Good job JH. How did you like the hang cleans, deceptively tiring. Hit you more than you realise. Wierdly, it's not that much harder to clean the weight overhead on the up thrust.

the other half · 03-25-2008, 07:41 PM

new exercises are always fun, AT FIRST.

hope things are going well.
you got food in the fridge right?
