I just can't imagine. My first job was at 15 at the bike shop. I went in and applied like a normal person, I would never have asked one of my folks to go with me.

The only "help" I've given my kids is suggesting they not smoke weed for a week or two before a drug test. :homer:

I know your kids are skinny, but that's still bad advice:

Detection times also depend on the drug test used. Typically, weed will remain longer in hair and can be detectable for up to 90 days from the day of use. Tests can detect weed for up to 30 days in your urine, up to 24 hours in your saliva, and up to 12 hours in your blood.

/end snark

[Ahem] dilution via hydration and vitamin supplements is a short term solution*

But I gather fake pee is what all the "cool" kids are doing these days...

So do they bring a generator now to plug in 20 leaf blowers? I was curious how this would actually work.


“If you look at what this machines does, how loud it is, how much it pollutes, it's not normal to be accepted where we live, where our children play," said Jessica Stolzberg, a writer and crusader against gas-powered leaf blowers who helped get a ban on the machines enacted in her hometown of Montclair, New Jersey.

An interesting listen on the leaf blower topic. Catwoman even makes an appearance.

The Los Angeles Leaf Blower Wars - 99% Invisible

The leaf blower is one of the most hated objects in the modern world. They’re loud, they pollute, and… how important is a leafless lawn anyway? In a lot of towns and cities, the gas-powered leaf blower has been banned. In others, there are strict guidelines on where and when they can be used. But

There's an old saying, "If you're spending money on vitamin supplements, you're literally pissing your money away."

The only time I have taken them is when training heavily.
Ironically, at the same time, my diet was on point and the best it has ever been.

Riding past the morgue.
I took some for a couple months when I was rehabbing after the accident at a docs suggestion, but quit when my pee turned highlighter yellow, also at the docs suggestion. If I'm sick I will take some, but as a general rule, no.
