I just want to know if my record was the issue why did they hire me to begin with. I am a father of 3 a husband and ive done my due to society I havent got into any problems my record wosent based on my behavior but based on my actions to help a person from gettin hurt.

Answer

Response by Michael Kotik attorney at law, www.LegalPhilly.com. I believe they might have let you go, because of your criminal record. Sometimes companies will hire individuals before their background check is complete. After it becomes apparent that there is a criminal record they will be forced to fire that person, not on personal performance, but rather their corporate regulations. It happens all the time. Frankly, I would never want to work for a company that looks at paper over the person.
