I been working for ups in nj now 6 months as a package handler. I am now 25 turning 26, i was convicted of a felony for drugs when i was 22 and did 1 year in jail. I was living in ny at the time.i recently moved to nj because i got the job and needed the benefits for my family. Really my son who has medical issues. Now like i said i committed the felony 3 almost 4 years ago in ny now i live in nj. In my resume i put that i didnt have a felony bc its in nj state, and i was convicted in ny. I never been in trouble in new jersey. I am now in the union. I am soon taking the class to become a driver. My question is, if they find out about my felony in ny ( drug charges ) will i get fired 2, 3 or 5 years from now bc i lied on the application ? I really need this job for my family. Its my only hope in life. I was young is was a big mistkae i changed my life around. Please im afraid of loosing my job.
Please use the tuition reimbursement program that UPS offers and go take up some English remedial classes at your local community college. Good god, you need it. I hope you take my advice after reading this.
