Not a very good one. Employers are hesitant to hire convicted felons because of concerns about reliability and honesty. In exchange for being willing to hire a convicted felon, employers expect to pay less. After getting out of prison, felons continue to pay for their crime. On the one hand it's unfortunate for the Ex-Con, but on the other hand you can't blame the employer for wanting something for being willing to take the risk. The person would be unable to obtain a position in law enforcement, security agencies (such as Brinks), most financial institutions, and those professions similar. For the most part in private business it is up to the person who decides who should be hired. It might also depend upon the terms of the person's release or probation, for instance a felony that involved a crime against a minor would negate any type of employment relating to or being in the proximity of children. Several times courts have found hotel or restaurant employers liable when employees with prior convictions commited a crime against a customer or co-worker, so they will NEVER hire someone with a felony conviction. Hospitals also hesitate.

It falls on Shrove Tuesday. The day before Lent starts (Ash Wednesday).
The idea was to eat, drink and make merry, before Lent, when one went into denial of some part of life as a reflection of Jesus Christ's 40 days in the Wilderness and temptation by the devil.
As I lay sleeping, I had such a dream of the Rag Man of my childhood! It was so hauntingly real that I grabbed my iPhone to look it up!
I can still see the old Colored Man as he came thru the neighborhoods of Mid-City, calling out “rag man” and I can hear the clip- clop of his mule as he drove the old wooden wagon down the streets.
Times were so different back in the war years, and every now and again I am fortunate to be blessed with these very old memories that I grew up with.
