A: It is possible but doubtful. Hire a competent attorney, work full time, stay away from illegal associates, and you probably need a new phone and number.

A: Thank you for the question. When you say that you only have one felony on your record, that statement is not as simple as it seems. Most job applications want to know if you have had a felony or a crime involving dishonesty. I think that most of the people in America are afraid of fentanyl. It is killed many good people. I would seriously suggest that you hire a local attorney to help you and go through rehab. There are obvious reasons why a company does not want to hire you. I know some good people with dead children because of fentanyl or however you spell it. Get some help ASAP.
