You know, this really has very little to do with the thread, but recently I thought of applying for a support job with the local FBI, and you have to go through extensive background checks, including a lie detector test. The day before my high school graduation I took one drag off a joint. The pathetic thing is, my friends had to teach me how to "inhale." Does that mean I can pull a Clinton if I ever interview with them? :
You will not get a job with the FBI, State Department, etc. by lying.
So I would just be up front about it.
I imagine that was quite a while ago and it shouldn't be a problem for you.
I know someone who recently applied fore a job with the State Department and they were basicly told that if they hadn't been clean in the past year not to bother to apply.
I don't think they want to disqualify a potentially terrific candidate based on a toke taken long ago, so I wouldn't worry about it.
But remember, Big Brother is always watching ;-)
