This has been going on for a few years now. It's the stupidist thing. I'm sorry but some people aren't good with money for varying reasons. That doesn't mean that they are unreliable or bad employees.

My credit is terrible, but my boss will tell you that I'm very reliable. I'm here on time every day. I rarely ever am out sick. Even with all the other things bad things that have happened with my job (most of which are discriminatory,) my boss still considers me reliable. And she's very picky on that stuff.

My credit is bad because I'm poor. Not because I'm unreliable. I hate credit scores. They don't tell you the whole story.
