Brothers,
I have recently been offered a job by Schlumberger, and I am worried... I took a hair follicle drug test and I am worried about failing it. I have never done illicit drugs. I am a Master Mason and I carry myself accordingly. I have taken about three urinalysis for them, and have passed them all. Although, I am a veteran of the USMC, and had surgery on February 1, 2013 for a service related injury. I was given anesthetia for six hours of surgery. I was in the hospital for two days where they gave me morphine. They gave me a months supply of Hydrocodone for the pain, and might I add was severe. I also had dental work done by the VA about a month, and a half ago for two cavities. I am assuming they used lidocaine on my mouth to numb the area. I am also an Iraq Combat Veteran who has been diagnosed with PTSD. When the test was done I told the doctor and tech doing the test about everything they had put in my body. I have paperwork of every procedure done on me and a list of every medication they have given me. I am just worried they would retract the offer due to a failed test due to my two surgeries which have healed excellent. I have worked hard in college, and busted my ass to get this job in the oil field. I am a hard worker, and passed up a hire paying job to work for this company. I would hate for them to deny me a job due to my surgery history. Has anyone had any experience with this? I will literally fight tooth and nail. Hire a lawyer or do what ever it takes to keep my job offer. I am simply a Combat Veteran who has felt the after math of war, and the VA is repairing my body.
