I know the homeless. I'd want them to have background checks, too.

Actually all disaster relief workers should have the background checks, especially the Child Abuse check.

What Wolf said. Anyone who will be working with children should have a background check done. If I have to have one done to apply for a job, you bet your ass you should have to do one when working with children and vulnerable families.

Pete Zicato · 06-01-2011, 04:41 PM

All teachers have to have background checks around here.

classicman · 06-01-2011, 04:57 PM

EVERYONE should have a background check. <channeling Merc>

BigV · 06-01-2011, 07:36 PM

I have my background checked once a year as I renew my role as scoutmaster in our boy scout troop.

ZenGum · 06-01-2011, 09:31 PM

I needed a background check for a teaching job, because a few (2 - 3 %) of the students were 17. The rest were over 18.
And we had to attend Mandatory Notification Training. Here, if you have grounds to suspect a child is being abused, you MUST report it. They told us what to look for, how to handle it, and who to tell.
It was a bit silly for us, because it was couched in terms of primary school kids whicih we never see. But, it is part of an overall package against child abuse and I'll put up with a paid day in training as part of that.

I had to get a background check because I wanted to accompany my nephew's class on school excursions. I signed up as a volunteer.

Spexxvet · 06-02-2011, 08:46 AM

I had a background check, including fingerprinting, to be a licensed optician in New Jersey.

*raises hand*

Background check.

At first I was worried until I realized they weren't going to check underground out back of my place. Hobos, you know.

HungLikeJesus · 06-02-2011, 09:58 PM

Does the background check include a review of Cellar posts?

footfootfoot · 06-02-2011, 10:09 PM

Let's hope not.

TheMercenary · 06-02-2011, 10:14 PM

My last background check took a year and a few months. TS-SCI.

Sucked waiting but I was glad when it was over.

At least it'll be an excuse for me to sit on my ass.

Let's you and me just be happy that background checks aren't a requirement to join the cellar.
