In Reply to: Does an MTSO have a right to request.. - Confused MT

This is the most asinine policy I have heard to date with all the complaints about the MT field and the MTSOs. I am glad I am at a point in my life where I can retire so I have no intention of looking for a job. The way MTs work, at home, furnishing the MTSO with free office space and utilities what the bloody heck does the credit score have to do with your ability to do the job?? I'm afraid I would tell such an MTSO that they could check my credit score if they wanted to give me their information so I could check their's. After all, they are the one who will owe you money, not the other way around, so maybe you should be concerned about their credit rating. I have nothing to hide and I certainly could stand up to a criminal background check but that is hardly the point. Ridiculous with a capital R!!! Good for you and your husband for saying NO.
