Good, very Glenn. Duma here calling in. I think it didn't leave enough information in my last voice message. I just wanted to expand a little bit more. In regards to credit in general, how much does that weigh on the application itself? Again, I've worked four or five years in Linti, company, to bank, pressure you're aware of the bank, moved up pretty good, moved up really high. I'm looking to do a career change here.

Never took a dollar in loans ever. And just wanted, in this one time that I took it before COVID, COVID hit us and pretty much snuck me over. Just wanted to kind of see how much to, what do you think? What input could you give us in regards to how much does credit way on the overall application here? Love your work, man. Take care. Thanks, dude. Thanks for calling.

Yeah. Credit. If you just have bad credit, you can figure shit out. Okay, with that. The RC&P aren't going to say, oh, you got bad credit so you can't become a cop. But I'll give you an example. I had this girlfriend. She was hot.

I ended up marrying her. And she wanted to become a cop. Oh, my God. Yeah. Could you imagine that? I was sitting together. Like, I'm retired and she'd be working coming home and I'd have to listen to the, I couldn't imagine.

So she gets a, this is so dumb, but she gets a interview with the RCMP in Parksville, with brickery. Breakerie, that's all he did was defer people and say you can't become a cop. She gets the interview. I know she has bad credit. She's got student loans that went into,

what do you call it when the credit people take it? I can't remember. I don't know. So I write a letter on her application saying, hey I'm a cop. I'm fantastic. We got this. We got her debt taken care of. I will figure it out. Don't let that. Don't let that not allow her to go to depot. She goes for her interview. They don't interview her. They just sit her down saying, you can't become a cop. He's your credit. And you have that loan. And then she says, she mentions me. And he's like, he's like, where's something? He didn't even read my letter.

you idiot actually I'm glad you didn't I'm glad she's not a cop tell you the truth but yes yes you're gonna I'm kind of confused by the call

because I don't know if it's just bad credit or if it's bad credit with a loan and you still have that loan and it went to the credit people if it went to the credit people do whatever you can to get that paid on apply now you might as well apply

apply And hopefully by the time that you get an interview where they really look at you, then you can say, loans paid off. I just have a little bad credit, but get your parents to help you pay that off, apply. Don't let it stop you. But yes, you might have a problem if you have a loan that is in bad credit right now. God, you wouldn't believe how many times that has happened to me,

my career. I mean, in my lifetime. Credit. Started with a girlfriend that had a bad credit. I won't say anymore. Student loans. I think we just paid them off. It was a long time ago.

I hope I answered your question. I feel bad. I feel bad that I haven't said enough. They change their mind tomorrow. So who even knows, right? With recruitment? Who even knows? You know?

I hear you don't even need, you just need a, If you have a degree, you don't even have to write the test anymore. Shit like that. Changes daily. But I can't see if they got a good guy in front of them that just has bad credit that they're going to say no to you. But try another.
