Ouch Jusselin,
That sucks, unfortunately our past mistakes come back to hunt us sometimes... Don't let it bring you down ! When one door closes you have to force open another one
What state are you in ? I ask because if you were not convicted for those misdemeanors and if they were all linked to the same case, you can apply for a record expunction, or to seal your record.
All states have different regulations I'm sure,
But in Florida you can apply for this one time,
it's basically a service through which certain criminal records can be expunged (removed from the records) or sealed (placed under highly restricted access).
When a criminal record is sealed, the public will not have access to it. Certain governmental or related entities would have access to it.
And when a record has been expunged, those entities which would have access to a sealed record will be informed that the subject of the record has had a record expunged, but would not have access to the record itself without a court order. All they would receive is a caveat statement indicating that "Criminal Information has been expunged from this Record".
There are some Disqualifying Charges for Expunction/Sealing, but check with your State Law enforcement...
You can file the application yourself or hire a lawyer to do this..
I used to work for a criminal attorney years a go & use to deal with these all the time.
I know this will not solve your problem now & won't make you get those jobs, but if you're able to do this you can have a second chance & you'll be able to get a good job in the future.. Hope this helps you some

Is ok to rant.. Don't worry
I would talk to your Dad if I were you,
Sometimes families can hold grouches,Pride gets in the way, and time passes & I tell you, you can't bring back time.. (I don't know what the details are between you & your Dad) but I had my disagreements with my Dad & now that I don't have him in my life, I realized how much time I spent arguing about stupid crap instead of enjoying him more)
Just remember, today could be the day you give your Dad a call, maybe that's what he's waiting for,
I'm sure if you've had a clean record for 10 years that's enough proof to yourself and your Dad that you've learned from your mistakes...
Hey, I think everyone has had their share of mistakes! No one is perfect

I was arrested and housed at the Jail my dad worked at...when they offered to let me go because of who he was, he told them to hold me there... I understand the tough love but c'mon it was my first offense and my dad let me stay in there with inmates he arrested as well. Talk about piss your pants i was freaking terrified. To say the least he kicked me out yadda yadda grew p with out him what ever what ever...he wouldnt let my brothers contact me because he said i was a bad influence.. or maybe i jst wanted him o spend time with me since our mom died when i was fucking 2 years old....oh well, cant believe im talking about this but yeah...he doesnt like trust me...he has told me so

Bruce Wayne: What have I done, Alfred? Everything my family... my father built...
Alfred Pennyworth: The Wayne legacy is more than bricks and mortar, sir.
Bruce Wayne: I wanted to save Gotham, I failed
Alfred Pennyworth: Why do we fall sir? So we might learn to pick ourselves up
Bruce Wayne: You still haven't given up on me?
Alfred Pennyworth: Never

Hey Juss,
If you go with a lawyer in Texas you can expect to spend around $1,500.. I fyou do it your self, these are the steps to take:
You would need to go the DA's office & see if your case qualifies for expungement.. Go to the DA's office in the county were the arrest happened.. if it does qualify then follow these steps:
1.Get a copy of the court form "Petition to Clear Record" from the court clerk's office in the county where you were arrested. Also get a copy of the court form "Order to Clear Record." You may also find the forms online from a legal services organization, such as Texas Law Help. You will also need to submit a record of your fingerprints, so you should also ask the clerk the procedure used by the court for fingerprinting in expunction cases.
2.Prepare the Petition to Clear Record by filling in your identifying information in the appropriate blank spaces, including the information regarding your arrest that you want cleared. You will also have to list on the form all agencies that have a record of your arrest and check the box describing the basis for your petition. After completing the form, sign it in front of a notary. You should make several copies.
3.File your petition and fingerprints at the clerk's office in the county where you were arrested. Request that the clerk stamp the court filing information (case number and date) on several of the copies of the petition you made. Keep at least one copy for your records. Send one copy by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the district attorney's office. The court will notify you by mail of the hearing date for your petition.
4.Prepare for the hearing on your petition by filling in as much information as you can on the Order to Clear Record. You must take this form with you to the hearing so that the judge can complete the order after granting your petition. You should also bring to the hearing your proof of mailing the petition to the district attorney's office, in case there is any question that it was done.
5.Attend the hearing on your petition, which is mandatory in order to have your petition granted.
In Texas this is handled through the District Clerk's office.
The price is $227.00 for an expungement/ Seal.
