  • Where I work, most positions do not require a background check so we have a mix of people (men, women, trans, nonbinary) with criminal convictions, including sex offenders.

    The only thing that matters is their behavior in the workplace. You get fired because of attendance or poor performance.

    The biggest problem people at my workplace are the people who try to make someones past an issue.

    Also, your statement that you “highly doubt that changed him” is very telling. Basically it shows that you are the one with the problem. Unless you have firsthand knowledge then you are trying to justify your negative feelings.

    Maybe this last time changed them. Maybe they got help. Maybe they’re in therapy and are trying to change.

    This person and your employer are under no obligation to do what you want when there is no justification other than your own personal judgement.

    I think Christmas has become the poster child for this unending cycle of “event seasons” that is pushed by retailers. New Year’s celebrations and sales give way to Presidents Day sales and Valentine’s (if you really love her you’ll spend $10K on a real blood diamond) then it’s Easter (gotta buy cute new clothes for the kids to celebrate the rising of the Christian lich god) then Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Pride Month, Fourth of July, Back to School, Labor Day, Halloween, say hi and bye to Thanksgiving bc Christmas ads featuring white people buying ridiculous shit for their spouses take precedence.
