Anecdotal, but I had a job offer for a software engineering position with McKesson back in 2010 and they told me I would have to pass a drug test in order to obtain the position.

I was a marijuana user at the time, so I took a competing offer that paid less (though ended up being a much better fit for me -- still with the company now 11 years later)

It kind of makes more sense to get a drug test when you’re applying to work at a company that deals in drugs.

Some of those detox drinks actually do work well. There's also the possibility of using fake piss. Both of these have worked for my friends in the past. The one friend who failed a test used real clean urine, but did not warm it up enough before the test. They just gave him another shot to pass the test.

You can even buy a fake dick to "urinate" out of:

You can even do an “oil change”
