[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 812155, member: 484"] There are several things here. TOS covered some issues very well, and from your posts (understanding that a written post never conveys the whole story) I dont know if you really have left that life behind. Some posts say yes, others tend to cast doubt. Honesty is not something you turn off and turn on when it is convenient. Sorry, if you have the ability to "be honest again" you were never honest to begin with. UPS continues to look at their employees. I can not say for 100% certainty if they do another background check on 100% of the part timers going full time, but I will tell you this, they can do a background check on any employee at any time if they perceive reasonable cause to do so. As a shop steward, there have been times when I had knowledge of things that I did not reveal. I was not asked, so I did not speak unless asked. At times, the volunteering of information can be catastrophic. I would suggest 1. Keeping your nose clean. And I mean clean. Be proactive. 2. If you are ever asked, dont play games and beat around the bush. UPS usually knows the answer to questions before they ask. All they want to do is see if you will lie. Yes, you did not lie about the conviction of the felony at the time of the application, technically . But you did have a pretty good idea that if offered, you would plea, but either way, you would have a felony count against you. So on your part, it was not truthful either. I see it as you being on borrowed time. I do know UPS has a treatment program for its employees. You might want to get some information on that if possible. I would also get legal advice from your lawyer, not from an internet site. d [/QUOTE]
