Question about the impact of a conviction.

[unleashex]

Hi, its pretty straight forward. I've been arrested and charged for shoplifting. and it was my first offence ever and i have stolen items which the total cost was less than 50$. Because of it, i couldn't proceed through screening and aptitude test. my question is: because i'd have to go to court. say i get convicted. for sure i will be because ill plead guilty. no way ill make it worst for something i have done so foolishly cause i didn't have money to buy it and needed money for food instead. i wonder, how would a conviction impact me on my future application? People had been telling me that i might just get only a warning. but i can only expect the worst to happen.

I already gave you, your answer, and that particular thread is already full of examples.  Do not spam the boards, and do not post any more new threads about this topic, this is your only warning.
