Going thro Police Background Investigation.......help plz.....

Question

I am currently going through backgrounds with a police department in CA. One of the questions on the background packet is if I have ever been accused by a co-worker of being racist....I had been accused of this. THING IS ITS NOT TRUE! My aunt had passed away and when I went into work, I was really quite and she assumed the reason I wasn't speaking was because I found out she was jewish....I explained to her what the case was. I was never disciplined by the employer.....no re-training no write up no nothing....IS THIS DAMAGING TO MY BACKGROUND?

Answer 1

How paranoid can people get ! I mean, getting all worked up over something like not talking. Come on this is a free country ! Freedom of speech !

Answer 2

no dont worry about it. trust me they dont really look into all that... they just make sure you dont lie about anything on your record. and you didnt because you were never disiplined. they make sure all information in your work history is accurate and then do a criminal backround check to see if you been arrested and what not.

Answer 3

wow, paranoid much?  HEARSAY is not the same thing.  You'll be fine.  You didn't put this on the application, did you?
