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

Scott? I asked you to stop posting on my page hours ago, just because I reply to your uneducated responses means nothing. I have stated over and over and over that I have NEVER EVER NEVER EVER used a drug in my life, yet you keep digging and digging at it. Calling me a liar, you dont even know me. Be a man and accept your mistakes and move on. I forgive you Scott, I forgive you.
Excellent point.
It's ok guys. This guy obviously has some inner problems. I think we can all honestly say he's not all there. No hard feelings though Scott, God bless and be safe out there.
I do! And I am more of a stand up guy then you will ever be, and i think everyone here has already agreed with that point...Good day sir.
I did not hack nor have I lied once, and thank you sir, My day has been wonderful with the exception of the Bears choking.
