oh, they really are too dumb to figure it out for themselves. you'd have to be a dullard to be fooled by the belief systems that fuel this sort of behavior. it's all packaged up in language about 'liberty' and 'freedom', but in the end, it's just thinly veiled greed. greed is the root of all human suffering, and the antithesis of all human societies.

It ain't over till the fat lady sings you know. This Mike Pence character is going to endear teh Donald to many Teapublicans, but no doubt will alienate him to just as many more.

Congratulations OP!
I just read your first post; you're very articulate, I see why you nailed the interviews. I'm glad they weren't petty about your past; it's always nice to witness reason prevail.

Congrats there mate. Now Is there not a way of having your record expunged, I believe there is in some states anyway. You sound like you'd be a good candidate so I'd look into it if I were you.

i intend on consulting an employment attorney as soon as i can afford it. i'm about to hit the 20 year mark on my convictions. i am under the impression that 20 years is a big mark for a lot of licensure stuff in my state, so there might be some options. i would rather not have to worry about this shit forever.
and from what i'm reading now, a lot of companies are moving towards not considering anything older than 7 years. the company that hired me is within the jurisdiction of a san francisco city ordinance that prohibits anything older than 7 years being used in hiring decisions. i'm not sure if my stuff even showed up. we didn't go into detail about the background check yesterday, just that i was all set to start training on monday. they may have not even gone back 7 years; it was handled by a third-party company, so who knows.
