I told the truth in my poly and got in trouble for it. I was told that what i did in the past didnt matter and that i should be completely honest.  they wanted to see if i was trust worthy enough to be a deputy and handle a weapon. well i was honest, and i passed my test. when i called later for a psych test date, i was told that i wasnt eligable because one thing that i had done was a criminal act and that i had to talk to my previous employer and to resolve it. they also said that they had to report to my current and former employers the stuff that i admitted to during my exam. i think it's bs that they told me to be honest and then they turn around and tell me that i cant be a deputy, and theyre gonna tell my previous employers of the stuff i did. it looks like i have to get a lawyer to help me out with one situation so that i can maybe pay for what i did and maybe hopefully i wont have to go to jail. the admin guy said that i could once again apply, but what are the chances of them wanting to hire me after i was honest and they know my past? its bs, i dont even know if i want to be a deputy anymore, this experience has really got to me and dont know what to do? any advice?
