Yes, there should be forgiveness. We all make mistakes and end up paying for them, but 10 years is a long time to carry that about and not be able to move on and get a job must be really hard for you. Don't give up, never give up. Someone out there will give you that chance so hang on in there and stay positive !

Ten years is a long time. If you have already paid your debt to society, your record should be clean.
That having been said, many employers would be hesitant to hire a convicted felon to handle money or with other people's credit information.
I commend you on being sober and wish you well.

Sometimes the law is about justice and not mercy.
