Hey guys,
I've learned a lot on this site about the polygraph, that's for sure. I've done very little wrong to 'lie' about, but am concerned about one thing. About four years ago, I stole no more than $5.00 worth of merchandise from my employer. I know that isn't a lot, but do you think that law enforcement would not hire me due to the theft from an employer no matter what amount?
Thanks in advance
Well that all depends on the particular department, however, in all honesty who hasn't actually taken something from an employer, be it a pen, note pad, ANY office supply, an extra long break (on the clock) etc. etc. etc. Heck, even if it wasn't intentional and you "accidentally" took something home from work and didn't return it then it is still theft.
I think everyone is guilty of this in one way or another.
I really wouldn't worry about it.
Now if you stole cash out of a drawer, then that is a completely different disqualifier.

I agree wiht Dimas.
