Will Possession of Marijuana Show Up on Background Check? NEED HELP ASAP!?

Question by Eric: Will Possession of marijuana show up on background check? NEED HELP ASAP!?
So basically I’ve just been offered a position at a ups facility in Connecticut. All they are waiting for is my background check but i have a question.. 6 months ago i was “arrested” for possession of marijuana (small amount) and since then have been placed in a drug education program (which i still attend for another month). So my main question is

1. Will this show up on my record as a conviction or what??

2. Does this mess up my chance for getting the job (package handler)

Best answer:

Answer by Exec Pot Head
You took a deferred sentence.
Taking this class is in exchange for a sentence. How do people not understand their sentence!!!??
You accepted a 1st offender diversion program – a drug class in exchange for no record. Paying the fines, completing community service and / or a drug program leaves no record of conviction.

I Got Convicted of a Misdemeanor, Is My Dream of Becoming a CPA Gone?

Question by Stephen Riach: I got convicted of a misdemeanor, is my dream of becoming a CPA gone?
A really stupid thing happened. Basically, a “friend” sold me a camera, and a few days later, the police were at my door. Questions were asked, and it came down to “Did you think the camera was stolen?” And my reply was, “Well, I thought it might be, but I wasn’t certain.” They wrote this down on a piece of paper and had me sign it. Apparently, I was signing my own confession. I was convicted of “possession of stolen property.” I really wanted to become a Certified Public Accountant. Would anybody still give me a job with this conviction? I’m so bummed.

I don’t think you’ll have an issue. I think the licensing board only looks at higher grade offenses… not what you confessed to.

Can I Be Fined for Possession of a Hookah?

Question by : Can I be fined for possession of a hookah?
So I’m currently living in Student Housing in the state of Hawaii. Long story short, I guess there was “room checks” and they found a hookah in my room. It has only been used for legal tobacco, yet my building fined me 500$ for it, saying that it was”drug paraphernalia”. Would it be worth fighting this? I think 500$ for a hookah is a little absurd!

Best answer:

Answer by Bob Rover
Hookah’s aren’t illegal in the u.s.
Basically, with the guilty until proven innocent, you can possibly have a test run on any traces still inside?

I’m not really sure how it would work..

“is modified for making, using, or concealing drugs.”
If it’s not modified… maybe?

Answer by Eric
what the f ?! you should fight it. its “main” purposse is for tobacco and you used tobacco on it so their shouldnt be a fine. fight it!it!
