Government Drug Testing....

[rnch]

i'm applying for jobs with various federal govenment agencies, the veterans administration look promising......they require drug screening.

does anyone know if their test is designed to uncover as usage?

they will test you for the 5 most common ones. amphetimines, narcotics, alcohol, opiates, pot.

when you go to the doc's for the test, you will sign a waiver that states what you'll be tested for and that it's okay to release the info to the employer.

government doesn't test for steriods....too expensive.

Yep, what they said, juice away. Just stay away from long acting esthers. Because after you are employeed if they suspect you are using you can be tested for aas. Just play it safe.
