selling underground steroids isn't a legitimate job, dumbo.
Anyone with previous convictions finds it much harder to get a job, how the fuck can you not understand that basic fact you moron.
Hmm... I "found" jobs straight away. Got a job at a publishing company right away while my personal training certifications were obviously expired, and was quickly promoted to managing the office as well as the collections department within 3 weeks. Was given the key to the office and was the first one there and by week 4 was conducting one-on-one as well as group interviews for new employees. Then went on to work at a gym working front desk for about 2 weeks then as a trainer then within a couple months was front desk manager as well as a staff trainer as well as an independent trainer training wealthy clients in their homes in the country clubs in the area. Then head trainer/ personal training coordinator while at the same time still front desk general manager (how the fuck do you figure I hired my then fiance to work daycare, then a few weeks later hired her to work front desk then a few weeks after that took her test for her to get certified as a personal trainer and hired her as a personal trainer because we had no female personal trainers on staff since my ex-girlfriend Who was the only female personal trainer we had on staff was on vacation visiting family in Bulgaria for a month)... maintain those positions through two ownership changes the second of which I brokered the sale after declining to purchase the business myself (twice.. First offer was for need to purchase 20% of the business, the second offer was for me to purchase 100% of the business) with a loan(s) that was offered to me buy a client. Get that? *Offered* I did not ask for the loan. I declined to purchase the business because I, unlike you, can read a balance sheet and my knowledge of accounting goes a bit further than just simply balancing a checkbook, cabbie, & and I was not interested in owning a gym knowing the profit margins and work involved. Its not like buying a house. The juice was not worth the squeeze compared to what I was already doing. I did however help broker the sale between the owner and a friend of mine who was the assistant to a client of mine from whom he borrowed the money. Around here there's not much need for banks when your clienteles net worth is measured in tens of Millions and one of the primary concerns when doing such sales in is if something goes sour who can sue who into bankruptcy the quickest. But I wouldn't expect you to understand how any of that works.
In addition the fella who purchased the business and I we're in negotiation to form a company to produce a pre-workout formula, of which I would be the formulator. I put together a proper pre-workout formula that would be sold in single servings but their price point at retail of $0.99 and a production cost of roughly $0.27. My part was number one formulating the product number two I obtained suppliers for all of the ingredients. Number three locating a company that would not only handle the manufacturing but I found a company that would handle the manufacturing and the packaging and warehousing and shipping, saving us an enormous amount on the price per unit. For my part I would own I believe 17% of the company and that steak would increase by 3% per year over the next five years including some other shit I won't get into because a simpleton worker like you just won't understand. Negotiations fell through when he wanted to own the formula. While I already owned the formula. something he was not aware of and still is unaware of. Me not owning rights to my own formula no matter what the percentage I got from it was never an option. I would rather own it and not make a dime off of it than have somebody else take credit for it.
Get that? 1 business, 2 management positions, 2 separate paychecks from the same business that I was offered to purchase on two occasions. In addition to my private/ independent training income as well as my other income sources..... all by people who know my background.
So, tell me again Jeffrey, how hard it is for somebody with a criminal record to "get a job".
