Hair Test Came back Positive at Swift

I figured as much. I have an itemized hospital bill, EOB, etc. I was a bit shocked to see the stuff on there to begin with but apparently they use it to numb the nasal passages before they start cutting into them.

It may, but as long as you have documentation from the hospital, doctors, ETC… stating what was used for your procedure and prescribed afterward they wont count it as a fail

I had cataract surgery on my eye in March and surgery to repair a ligament in my foot in April. Before each procedure, I asked the anesthesiologist to issue me a report of what they used knowing it will likely show up on the hair test. They both happily printed them out when I told them why I needed them. I also kept all my pre and post op script slips from CVS just in case. I was prescribed pain killers for post op pain for foot but didnt need them and never took any.

A couple of questions from a newbie

Hey Scott,

Does CFI hire drivers right out of school, and if so do you know if they have a list of approved schools they hire from?

I stay out about 6 weeks then go home for about 6 days, more if needed. I am the sole bread winner in my house.

I split my hometime between 2 weeks to maximize pay. For example get home on a Thursday and go back out the following Tuesday or Wednesday. The first day home I relax and sleep. After that it depends. I'll be home June 23rd and have a bunch of work to do on our car.

I can do this because CFI gets me home when I want or need, never late. Also, CFI's hometime policy.

Hope this helps.

Hair Test Came back Positive at Swift

This is an interesting one. I start training locally in June and I am sure when I get hired somewhere they will end up doing a hair follicle test. I have never done any drugs, but in February I had a Septoplasty done and wouldn't you know they used something called Cocaine HCL Topical solution. I was just going to bring in my info from that surgery as a "Just in case"

Anyone think this would come up as a positive result ?
