Abracadabra Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 seriously though, what the fuck is up with the assraping of a background check i have to have to get a job in this country? holy crapping crap. here's what they want from me: my work/life history for the last 10 years. like a month by fucking month re-cap. a copy of my high school diploma. i finished high school more than 10 years ago for crying out loud. is it really necessary? my addresses for the last 10 years. again, month by month re-cap. a cup of urine. it's enough to quit job hunting altogether and just slang yay on the block with hesh and seeks for the rest of my days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUR X3 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'd imagine it's harsher because you're not of this country. Whenever they ask me for that shit I give them like a fairly detailed last couple of years and then fuck off for the rest of it. The reason they are asking for so much is just in case your last address isn't on file. They've never asked me for a diploma they just asked if I graduated. Again I bet it's worse since you aren't American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacuum cleaner Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 sheesh, that's insane... but, i don't know how places treat people who aren't born in the US. Where are you applying that requires that much info? Seems a bit strange to me, but ah well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Mask Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I love canada. I think if I was asked for a urine sample in any job that doesnt require security clearance I would quit. And probably be able to sucessfully launch some kind of human rights challenge afterwards to get some cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abracadabra Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 btw, i'm not stressed over the urine test. i don't do drugs. and i don't have any problem with an employer asking people to take a drug test, even when i did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUR X3 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 You said you were working for a temp agency if I remember. I've worked for a good dozen or so and never been asked for all that. I worked for like 6 at once at one time. Just for 2 and 3 day jobs to help pay for skate supplies, it was sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhereEaglesDare Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 if you're going through an employment agency it's kind of standard practice to do those obnoxious background checks. Some of those agencies need the checks done to ensure you're not a job jumper or a flake. That and if you're a convict or a junkie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1988 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 the job is with fedex. i hope it comes through cos they get a thorough discount on apple and a bunch of other companies Yes, I've gotten plenty of free and discounted stuff from this company... Almost worth staying with it, plus the benefits are good. And if you work for FedEx Express, the cost of flying is pretty much non-existant.

Fairy McGay Gay Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 you should make up a job situation that makes u sound fairly responsible and can fit into a fairly nomadic lifestyle. maybe you can say you were a freelance journalist that had to travel to get stories about X subject, and that you sold your stuff to many different publications, making it hard for them to verify...i donno...a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
