The temp job I had with an insurance company liked my work and wanted to hire me. The weekend before though, I went to a reggae festival, and partook of the herbal goodies. The monday after, I was tested and failed. Ultimately, it didn't matter because 2 months later I was offered a job with the State, with no drug test, and was hired. I was with the State for 21 years, with excellent reviews. Best thing that could have happened to me! When one door closes, another one opens.
