Well i ve been reading everyones posts and I can see that there is mixed reactions in regards to infractions. So here's my story...
I was orginally charged in southern california with misedanor theft and got it brought down to an infraction. My lawyer said that this was the best deal possible so of course I took it. But now Im really panicing because I just got a job offer yesterday but they won't start my training until my backround check comes back green. This really worries me. The job is for a cell phone retailer and Im wondering if this is something which will make then want to revoke their offer. Im sure the infraction will come up because they conduct their backround checks with a company that checks into records extensively. I dont know what to do, I am on pins and needles. I talked to a someone esle who has an theft infraction on his record and he said i should be fine, he just recently got hired at macy's which gives me some piece of mind but what if my backround check is more intense?
I m really going crazy over this and researching it for the past 4 hours! Can anyone give me any sound advise, preferably in a timely manner?
thanks.
