If one is clean, there is nothing to worry about. Show me a truly false positive from this site.

This is what I keep telling myself. Honestly I've built up quite a bit of excitement around getting in to trucking and have unfortunately let a few stories send fear into me that it could all go down in flames right out of the gate. I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and go get the testing done myself before applying anywhere just to ease my mind. I'm sorry if I'm coming across as crazy. I really really want this and don't want to mess up.

First of all, it's great to be here. I've been reading through posts on this forum for a few months now and like what I see! Looks to be a top shelf group of people on here. I actually just received my Class A and have been researching companies to start with. I will say that after due diligence it would appear that there have been a number of people who have failed a drug test because of a false positive. Getting popped for cocaine and never using cocaine etc. Then of course they get black balled from the industry and this goes on their record. I for one have been clear of inhaling plant fumes since senior year of high school (10 years ago) but I am still somehow worried of the possibility of a false positive that will ruin my chances of entering the industry. I am so excited about getting into trucking but this (somewhat irrational I'll admit it) fear is holding me back from full commitment. Are there any words of advice or experiences that you can share on this topic? I would greatly appreciate it.
