You've got no flight time and no experience, and therefore no leg to stand on when seeking employment. Approaching it from the position of a flippant attitude won't help your case.

Take it very seriously. Your potential employers will, and you've plenty of competition that will understand the implications of irresponsible behavior. You're posting in other threads regarding your frustration at not finding work at your experience level. Don't compound that by simple mistakes and reckless behavior.

You got it reduced!! I wouldn't admit or disclose anything. If you were not convicted of a misdemeanor, you have no obligation to tell a potential employer about what you happened to be charged with. Burke would like everyone to act like a Sally...:eek:

A "Sally?" Is that meant as an insult, or is English not your primary language?

The matter of the ticket isn't the issue, and I didn't address that. I addressed the flippant attitude about the ticket and it's relevance to a career. Your reading comprehension suffers. Work on that.
