Yes I did ... on my one and only interview . I lied when they asked if I had ever been arrested . I had been , twice in 8 weeks ... for fighting at school. Knowing a little something about the law , I knew that since that occurred while I was a minor my records were sealed and unavailable for review. I did get the job and under a fit of conscience I told my “boss” what I had done and that I couldn’t accept her offer because I wasn’t factual . She just stood up and hugged me and said she knew all about that ... and that a girl has to fend for her self , then she told me “ don’t be ridiculous , of course I was going to take the job . I have worked for her 19 years .
