Employment with a felony? (Thank you everyone who helped me, I appreciate it very much)

First I would like to thank anyone and everyone who responds to this message. When I was 19 back in 1999 I was arrested for unlawful possesion of drug paraphenalia and possesion of a controlled substance. To make a long story short I was driving with "friends" when I was pulled over for speeding, my "friends" hid their contraband in my car without my knowledge and since it was in my car and they denied owning the above mentioned articles, I was arrested and charged. It has been 10 years since then and now that I know I want to become a firefighter I am afraid that this will keep me from obtaining my dream...so I guess my question is, am I screwed? Should I just try and forget about becoming a fireman? What if I can get this felony expunged? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and God bless

Guinness is not a beer (: crazy just a bit and the irish will drink most things not to stereotype my culture any bit !!!
if Guiness is not a beer, then perhaps it's a way of life? : )
It's an institution, a right of passsage and a damn fine drink!
A way of life but also a stout,smile as i read your comments guys, funny!
I prefer Leinenkugel, Has anyone ever had a Leinenkugel Original? or a Berry Weiss? It's like desert!
Lemon beer?????? What is the name of it??? Are you talking about Summer Shandy? Kinda tastes like fruit loops?
If Guiness is not beer then it's the best liquid bread on the face of the planet.

Scott,

What is your take on the entire crews of wildland firefighters that are not only felons, but are currently incarcerated?

There are numerous prison wildfire crews that fight fire all over the U.S., but especially in the west. They're felons, and they're firefighters.

Makes you go "hmmmmm".

Another great beer is Wild Blue...tastes like Berry Weiss but is 8% alcohol by volume...does the job quick!
Not that I'm a big drinker or anything, I do have a fondness for Belvedere's, in a bucket and dirty with extra olives... Tastes great and less filling!
