Finding a new job in the age of Drug Testing.

So after 22 years the small company I was working for was bought out by the much larger company and long story short a year later a lot of us are looking for new jobs. While I live and work in California and weed is legal, just about anyone with a job worth having is performing pre-employment drug screening. I have stopped smoking in anticipation but truly resent it. I tried one of those “cleaners” like 15 years ago and it failed, and I got in deep dodo @ work. How are they these days? Do I really need to stop? or are they reliable enough these days so that I won't have to completely give up the one thing I like to do? I don't like alcohol. Beer, Wine whisky make me feel terrible physically. What say you all? What is your experience?
