Passed my test...
I called today to find out about the status of my application. They said the were waiting on the background check (nothing to worry about...I don't break any laws! Anyway, I asked if they had received the results, and she said yes, and everything was clear.
I did substitution, as explained in the third post down, by whos_gotherb311, and which can be found here: http://forum.grasscity.com/general/1...lp-please.html
Since no one replied to my post, I went to a local head shop and bought some of "Dr. Green's Agent X Premixed Unisex Synthetic Urine with Heating Element and 3 OZ. Container" Ha! Quite the title, but I'm just posting this in case someone is looking for a viable (at least for me) alternative to Quick Fix (which they didn't have at the shop I went to) Also, on the bottom of the box there's a UPC barcode, and to the left of it it says "Formula 7.0" Now, I read some bad reviews about Agent X, but it seems that there's a premixed and a non-premixed version, and most of the problems seem to be by people using the non-premixed version, which means they might have not mixed things properly.
I also had a friend call the lab to find out if it was necessary to strip into a gown for the test. They said they only did that for court ordered tests (I don't know much about court ordered tests, so your guess is as good as mine) and that all I would have to do would be to empty my pockets. When I got to the lab, the lady had me fill in the form, show some ID and then asked me if I needed some water. I said I was ready, and she handed me the little cup, but before she told me not to flush the toilet nor wash my hands. They didn't ask me to empty my pockets, but I had stuffed the container in my undies (I used boxer briefs, BTW. Just seemed safer that way.) I went in, closed the door, pulled out the container, unscrewed it (I didn't use the top with the little spigot or whatever the hell its called) and dumped the mixture into the cup, just a little more from where the lady told me to fill it to. I peed in the toilet, came out and told the lady I was done, she took the cup, put a sticker on it, signed the form, told me to flush and wash my hands, and that was it. Pretty easy if you ask me.
BTW, when warming up the synthetic urine I warmed it up for 10 seconds the first time, which brought the temp to 98 degrees. I put in the microwave for another 5 seconds (15 seconds total) and the temp was higher than the 102 the strip can register. I put the little warming agent bag they include with the included rubber band, stuffed it down my underwear and away I went. Now, I'm only 3 miles from the lab. When I got to the lab, in the parking lot I checked the temp of the bottle, and it was 100 degrees. By the time I put the stuff in the cup, it was 98 degrees. The cup, when I gave it to the tech, was registering 94 degrees (I did put the cup on top of the toilet lid when I was peeing in the toilet) From my house to the lab, it took me about 10 minutes to get there, and then 2 minutes to go up to the lab from the parking lot. Once I got into the office, I was in the bathroom after about 4 minutes. That little pouch works pretty good, plus it was in my undies. Outdoor temps that day were about 75-77 or so.
Anyway, just wanted to relate a success story....And thanks to GC for making such information available (the search button is your friend!)
