Answer #1

thats some b.s , you have to lie on app just to work a few months till other wise they say get loss. if your looking for sh#t jobs oo yeah theyll hire you, min wage why not just get a job at burger king… let me tell you guys that I have a class a felone, from 12 years ago, I guess I cant get rid of it, about to lose my house, my job, and possibly my family. I have not ever went back to jail, no other chargers, NOTHING. NOW DOES THE SYSTEM WANT ME TO GO OFF AND SAY F##K EVERY THING I TRYIED FOR, JUST CANT DO IT ANY MORE. BUT NO I HAVE A DAUGHTER I HAVE TO FIGHT FOR, SO I LIE GET PAID GREAT, ON MY RECENT JOB THE APP SAID IN THE LAST 10 YEARS, I PUT NO I WAS TELLING THE TRUTH,, BUT THEY WANT TO FIRE ME BUT MAN I DO A GOOD JOB, IM A WATER AND MOLD TECH. I WORK WITH PEOPLE ALL THE TIME, IM ON MY COMPANY NEWSLETTER FOR BEST CUSTUMER SERVICE, JUST THE SYSTEM IS F@@KED UP, CHANGE YOUR NAME IS THE ONLY OPTION THAT I HAVE.

Answer #2

Yes just dont lie about it. The more upfront you are about it, the more likely you are to get the job. Don’t give up. It gets frustrating but stick to it…you’ll get something. Its all about the powers of persuasion. If you’re feeling down, read a book called Maximum Influence: Powers of Persuasion. It’ll put you in the right perspective to go out and get what you deserve. Good luck.

Answer #3

yes it is lol. I worked there for 2 years when I turned 14 and they made me do the dirtiest jobs…like using WD-40 on the pipes underneath the sinks that were once green (and are NOW copper) for $5.00/hour. NO THANKS

Answer #4

You can find a job, don’t let anyone tell you different. All you have to do is apply, then be upfront and honest. I know a guy that applied for the job, tried to tell the employer about it then the employer interrupted him and said that was his business, and he wasn’t interested in hearing about it. He just wanted a good worker and he hired him. He works at a car dealership.

Answer #5

Just be honest and let them know upfront and try at some crappy place like mcdonalds to show you wont go bad again

Answer #6

McDonald’s isn’t crappy. :O

Answer #7

You just were at the right place at the right time!
