It is just so hard to believe how misdemeanor can greatly affect your ability to get a job. I have B.S. in science and cannot get a job because I was charged with a misdemeanor. That means that someone with less education and experience than me can get a job over me because they have a clean record even though I am more qualified. Or like people who major in shit like poetry. What kind of problem solving skills to learn by studying poety? Just keep your head up and keep trying to find work, You'll probably get rejected from lots of jobs before you find one, I know how hard it is.
Delta9 Reviewed by Delta9 on . Life after a MJ misdemeanor... I got caught with weed in October (less than a gram) and got a misdemeanor for possession. The fine ended up being $659. Since I had been laid off, I could not afford it. And I had cancer at the time (thankfully in remission now...whew!), but hadn't gotten my med card yet, though it was in the works at the time. The sherriff didn't believe me. But, I have papers to prove it...whatever. He searched my car and even went on my laptop. I was a high level consultant at the time. Rating: 5
