One hired me, and I started training. Both ran backgrounds. I was let go of at the one I started because of background stuff that came back on criminal charges that were dropped.

I tried re-applying again but they won't even update my account or help me as they are still using the old application I did over a year ago and the results from Chekr are still the same.  Uber and Lyft were the same scenario with Chekr, denied, and I was also denied by an Independent Contractor to drive for Amazon by Chekr.  Their website stated they were 420 friendly, yet I couldn't be qualified for having a 5 year old DUI. I even let them know I don't even drink at all anymore, that I am on medication, Naltrexone, that I absolutely can't drink while on it...just to prove myself STILL after all these years. I still got denied a job, a livelihood, and a right to work.  It's very sad that Companies are doing this to people who are willing to work.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Amber</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 13 Dec 2022 13:01:33 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Employment Background Checks - Class Action - Class Action Lawsuit</title><link>https://www.classaction.org/employment-background-checks#comment-6039928167</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I have been denied by many companies including Door Dash, Uber, Lyft, many many different places and the only thing on my record is back in 08 and was a misdemeanor at that shouldn't show anymore yet still denied work&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Jackie JGirl</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 14 Nov 2022 02:53:27 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Employment Background Checks - Class Action - Class Action Lawsuit</title><link>https://www.classaction.org/employment-background-checks#comment-6029127476</link><description>&lt;p&gt;So does Tractor Supply when you fill out the online application.

I told the hiring manager that I had a felony charge when being interviewed. He had me write down explaining what happened, and he did not turn it in with the application. Well, my felony did not show up on my background check. It was over 20 years earlier. Someone that had worked at the place found out that I had been in jail, they complained about it, and when it got back to my manager, who is a new manager, he and HR suspended me on the spot, and I fired me a week later over the phone. &lt;br&gt;For this job, I relocated and closed my business; I had worked there for almost two years when this happened. It was an $80.000 plus a year job. It took me three years to land a decent job. I almost lost my house, and it cost me a divorce.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">michael Donovan</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 20 May 2022 07:41:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Employment Background Checks - Class Action - Class Action Lawsuit</title><link>https://www.classaction.org/employment-background-checks#comment-5822913405</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I had a felony show up on my record when i applied for an apartment which is false and in return i was denied the apartment.I payed a $35 application fee.please add me.Mistie Wheeler&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Richard Nelson</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 10 Apr 2022 06:27:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Employment Background Checks - Class Action - Class Action Lawsuit</title><link>https://www.classaction.org/employment-background-checks#comment-5277067362</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I was convicted of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle when I was 16, and held in juvenile until I tore,  recharged as an adult.
