is it just me, or is that completely fucked up of him to question his sobriety? Maybe i'm too sensitive but that seems REALLY disrespectful...

yeah stuff like that bugs me for some reason, its fu&kin hard enough as it is in the world without people going out of their way to make it MORE difficult.
Congrats on being clean, it's not easy...
It's just the internet, that's why I have a quick "ignore" trigger, works nicely actually

My apologies for the late response and I appreciate all the information. Unfortunately to say the least I served 4 months in county. Find it baffling that a legal state would still find it problematic. Would it still be a good idea to pursue my degree/certification in the IT field? Should I change my major seek trade school. For the mean time I've worked several jobs from brick laying to installing & programming servers. I know this board isn't necessarily the place to ask i'm just curious and appreciate someone with any wisdom from every point of view.

Don't worry, Say nothing. We are looking for skill as managers. I am looking hot shots. I have a guy that just got into fight and cold cocked the guy, You should not mess with him.

He got arrested and then our company was sold. And the new Company was doing a skill assessment, which he ACED like the Champion he is.

But, he was worried about the Assault Conviction. I made it a manager trust moment, and thanked him for seeing me. I had him tell me all about it and we had some really good laughs. Funny story, really.

And he forget to even ask me if he was in trouble with the new Company. Of course not.

I am a Sr Software Engineering Manager at one of the Big Three. I have hired over 50 people overt the years, You are TECH. You are home. Get the Cert and don't give them anything to check out on your application.

Just leave it out. Just say KNOW.
