    Does that mean I will most likely fail? When will I most likely not fail?

    I will lose my job.

    Get your resume ready. Seriously.. the risk of failing is high enough you need to worry.

    If you don't hear anything back 3 or 4 days after the test. If you failed you should hear before then.

    Are you on probation or in a program with mandatory testing?

    Probation through my employer, not the courts, and yes, mandatory testing.

    Didn't expect this test at this time, thought I could get away with it. When do you think I would show clear under my circumstances?

    It varies from person to person, so there really isn't an answer for failing or not failing anytime soon. Also, on this site, we don't help people cheat the system.

    If you attempt to reschedule.. they are going to ASSUME you have been drinking... and rightly so.

    Next week... for sure.

    But before then its anybodies guess. There is no one size fits all answer that would apply to everyone.

    80 hours, so you do the math. Nothing you can do to alter the results at this point.

    Yes, it is true that some people can even fail this test without drinking at all. It is not 100% accurate
