Warehouse or moving company - movers typically need to be free of felonies for over 7 years.

Keep looking man...I have more felonies than most people have misdemeanors. I have a decent job...internet manager at a car dealership...Don't let that felony keep you from trying...don't take no for an answer and don't be afraid to be honest...75% of people won't understand or won't give you a chance...don't let that end your job hunt...Keep trying until you find the 25% that will treat you like a human

the best job i can think of off the top of my head would be working at a Wal-mart distribution center. Forklift certification will be a definite plus. Also, they pay pretty good. (probably between 10 and 15 an hour) and you can get atleast 40 hours. Other distribution centers will be about the same. (Winn Dixie, other chain stores. Depending on the crime, you may get a janitorial position. Housekeeping is probably out of the question. I wish you luck. I know how hard the system can be on people in your situation

That`s a tough one :/ i`m sorry about your situation , and it depends on what you did ! If you by say murdered someone , i doubt someone will want you cleaning their house :D but if it`s like theft charge , i`m sure you can get into like mcdonalds or goodwill [i`m serious] !

What would you like to do? Just get out there and look.

Depending on the crimes, you might be able to things on your record expunged. At least that's how it is in the state of Washington.
