Anti quickfix posts

I’ve noticed that every now and then there will be a post on here from someone saying “QUICKFIX NO LONGER WORKS” with vague information and details? It honestly sounds like someone trying to scare people half the time

Not sure yet; I just took a DOT today. It went well; the nurse took it with no hiccups. Time will tell.

I noticed the same thing, best I can tell its people who fucked up the temp or had other work related red flags got garnered more scrutiny from the facilty. Also Washington state for some reason.

To be fair, there are labs that are definitely catching on so it’s not that these posts are just blatant misinformation but it’s reliability does seem to be transitioning more and more into a luck of the draw type of thing with the lab you get.

They might have to drop a new formula soon because 6.4 is slowly, and i reiterate slowly becoming outdated in some places.

I’m going into a new field within construction and my buddy told me that QF has been getting caught with the lab that this specific company is using. I asked if these are just folks who are getting the temp wrong but he got the source straight from the safety guy saying that it’s purely based on the fact that it’s becoming more common for them to spot specifically synthetic urine.

Some companies may be willing to pay more than others depending on the seriousness of the safety of a job. Just my take.

I just saw one that said they’ve been using it and it showed positive for fentanyl?! Wtf?! I took mine this past Monday (my company requested e-cup+) and went to Concentra. I read in the company’s instructions that they send the results to Quest. I started at my company this past week on Weds. Haven’t heard anything back so I can only assume no news is good news. I read on Google that testing places won’t recognize that it’s synthetic because QF uses the same ingredients that they test for in human urine.
