    Question Does GNC give a drug test for pre-employment???

    I know there is no rec talk here so I want to keep it that way. But I'm wondering if they give the regular old tests.

    Has anyone worked there? Knows someone that has or does. Your help would be appreciated.

    They don't drug test, that's a terrible company to work for if you want to be an honest selling employee. I worked there for 7 months or so. Bad pay, terrible commission rate, must push their overpriced preferred line of products, have percentages that you have to keep on top of, have to push the gold card scam on customers.

    Thanks . I hear what your saying. But I have to do something while Im in school. And I will do the correct thing when at all possible. If someone is going to pay a higher price for a product and they are happy whth what they are getting than no wrong on my part.

    Even if they did, it's easy to pass.

    1) One or two days before the test, start loading up on creatine
    2) On the day of the test, start drinking massive amounts of water to mask any drugs that may be in your system
    3) While loading up on water, take quite a few B vitamins to turn your piss yellow so your urine doesn't look adulterated (tampered with)

    Let me explain on step 1. When you drink a lot of water, your urine is basically water (which tells the official administering the test that your urine is adulterated). Drug tests detect the amount of creatinine in your urine to determine if you've tampered with the results in any way. That's where a short loading phase of creatine comes in because creatine breaks down into creatinine.

    So now you've got yellow water for piss that's saturated with creatinine. I've used this method many times (even after smoking a bowl the day before) and passed every single time.

    Good luck.

    Would you really care if you failed? What do you have to loose? You on probation or something?

    Worst case senario...you fail and you don't have a sh!tty job.

    Best case senario...you pass and you do have a sh!tty job.

    My advice for good money for not alot of school...

    Become an EMT-Basic....all you need is 1 semester of college with no pre req's....Pay averages 12-14$/hr....you can work boocoo's hours. In some cases you can work 7 days/week if you like and Im talking round the clock....or you can do (2) 24hr shifts back to back and have a whole weeks work knocked out in 2 days...thats what I did...worked friday/saturday 48 hr shift, off sunday, school monday-thursday....

    I did that all the way through....Got my emt-basic, emt-intermediate, and emt-paramedic....after that I did a 18 month emt-p to registered nurse transition and now i just work in the ICU with a base pay of 43$/hr....

    And befor you say you can't stand blood and guts...don't worry...you can work for a private ambulance company(as apposed to a 911 service)...all you do is tote grandpa to his dr appt or to his dialysis treatment...

    BEST OF ALL....if you dont have a call all shift...you get to sleep ALL SHIFT...and most companys have weights at the base...

    EMS=earn money sleeping!

    I worked there for six months last year, they don't give drug tests.
    But they have no business integrity (as many large corporations do) but very shitty pay; I'd highly recommend working elsewhere.
    Good luck with whatever you do.
