Family,
I'm writing this to vent....I've been looking for work lately as I am sure that many of you are. I went into an Adult Shoppe today thinking it would be the "perfect" place to work..I would fit right in with my Devious Nature...(giggles)..plus I have tons of Retail experience.
Well now...I filled out an Application and received such a warm Response from the Manager, and then was told I'd have to undergo a Background Check of a Nature that I've never done before...a Lie Detector Test asking me all about my life, my beliefs, my background etc...sex, work, religion, etc.
I was very cordial and polite, but when I left, I left not feeling happy or good...who the F*CK makes you undergo a Test where you have to *&^%$ talk to a total Stranger about what you "believe" in???? I am not ashamed of what I am, but am I not allowed to believe what I believe whether I share it or not? I am drug-free and "crime" free...BUT it is NONE of their "business" to know about my "kinky" side and the fact that I LOVE SATAN.
What's mine is mine and what's your is yours...if you care to share, then great, if not, we come together in Belief here....I am not ashamed of who I am but do not feel it is right to have to "explain" my Life like that to people...NO WAY.
F*ck them....I am so mad right now!!
I am a good, honest, Daughter of our Father!!

The point I am trying to make here is that working in an adult store is not like getting a job at the mall, it is a very unique work environment and the owners, who are running a business, need to make sure that the people they hire will still be around more than a couple of weeks. In order to make sure the the people they hire will be able to not only handle, but to succeed in that unique work environment they may have to resort to slightly different methods in the hiring process. As far as the questions on the polygraph (again assuming that you would really have had to take a polygraph) they could have been aimed more toward general type questions and not specific. They may not have just wanted to know what you believe specifically but just that you are not so incredibly religious or prudish that working around adult material for long periods of time would melt your brain. It is very easy and quite common to ask a series of questions regarding a persons general beliefs without asking exactly what they believe.
