No. doubtful.: It is doubtful that the urine test is literally for alcohol (which is gone in 1-2 day at most). All the other breakdown products they screen for are for long term use of alcohol and stay around for days and will be positive. The tricky part is why does a job test for alcohol that is not taken during the workday? Are they really testing just for alcohol taken that day?
