Hi guys, hypothetically, if one were to renege via failing a drug test what would happen? Aren't the results of a failed drug test private info? Assume that you won't have contact with this firm and you won't want to work for it in the future.

Obviously not the most original or clever burn but it was the best I could do at the moment. Thanks for the faux support.
the drug test / background check posts continue....
strong reading comprehension skills/10
most contracts will state that the offer is conditional on you passing certain checks and tests, such as your drug test. so if you fail the test, they are not "reneging" on the offer. the definition of reneging is to "go back on a promise, undertaking, or contract." it is you who is going against the terms and conditions of the contract, and therefore it is void.
I ain't no lawyer but my reading comprehension skills sure are better than yours, "pimp". cheers!
The way I read that is this:
OP wants to renege on the offer but instead on reneging he will just fail the drug test (thus creating no hard feelings by not burning bridges and jeopardizing his other offer)
Lots of hate!
Seriously, yeah it's not technically reneging but we know what you mean. I definitely wouldn't do that. There's too much risk that your name could be associated with drug use forever. Just not worth the risk. Also just out of curiosity, do you do a lot of drugs? If not, are you going to intentionally take drugs just so you can fail a test...just so you don't have to send an email saying, "Dear [], Regrettably I will need to ..."?
Anyway, yeah, just send 'em an email and say thank but no thanks. Way easier than the "alternative".
ditto
Alright bro, I'm just getting cold feet I guess and to answer your question I do smoke weed on occasion lol I cant imagine someone trying drugs just so they can fail the test.
Seemed like a pretty straight forward question. I doubt there would be additional ramifications. Still gotta pass the second drug test though...
