One of my jobs when I dropped out of college was at a construction job building swimming pools. The owner of the company had no problem hiring ex-convicts but no thieves. He hired murderers like he was running an alumni's club.
The biggest job I was on was building an olympic sized pool. One day we were taking a lunch break in the shade and one of guys asked another one why he killed a guy in a bar. His answer was, the man needed killing. I realized then that some people were not like us and we needed to adjust our understanding about a few things.
