I worked for a temp agency & then got hired full time, passed my drug & background checks, signed my onboarding documents & was given keys to the property. A few days later, I was told I was fired because I didn't have my driver's license. I was never told by HR, just by my property manager. I do not understand how AFTER I got the job AND signed all the paperwork, they decide me not having a license was problematic. Sandalwood Management is not a good company to work for, they are dishonest & unprofessional. #termination #advice

I unfortunately don't have transportation of my own but I have family that does have transportation working in Triadelphia so I am able to work up there.

giving a bot of background on why my account here says Marie Robinson and not my actual name in which its Eli is because my original account is too crowded in terms of messages so getting an important message is hard to find with all the ads I get on my personal Gmail account. this way ill be able to actually read any of the important messages using this account.

Feels like going for computer programming like everyone advises, will be just a waste of time as it seems the companies that hire, do require that damn background check. I mean on all these online job applications even for the "intern" level, I have to 'tick the damn box' either allowing or disallowing a background check but as everyone knows if you tick the box saying "no" you will within seconds get the online reject letter and all your 10 minutes of typing time will have all been wasted. My problem is a high level of education WAY BEFORE the felony conviction. And more education isn't going to put me with the types. of companies that don't check background. As a Stroke survivor, I can't drive or do heavy lifting, that rules out pretty much EVERYTHING that I know either hires felons or just doesn't check, period. What else is there, lay down and die?

Second Grade Teacher at Amazon Valley Academy

They should have done one for me at the time, but they didn’t do one and I taught for at least 2 years. In fact at the time (2016) they didn’t even have me do a “carteira assinada” and I’m a Brasilian citizen. I could have sued them, but for the sake of my students I didn’t. That administration has since left and AVA is under wonderful new admin now that is seeking to do everything correctly.
