TLDR: My employer fired me for something she did and i’m afraid she will trash me on my background check.

Hello, I need help from some people that work in HR.

I was recently hired at a children’s hospital and have to pass a background check. I have had great relationships and history at all my employers EXCEPT one of them. I worked in a small owner business where it was only me and the asthetics doctor who owned the business. There were a lot of inappropriate practices happening shortly after I was hired on (benefits that weren’t being followed through with, expired medical supplies being used, doctor was constantly on vacation and only in office a couple times a month, etc) so I started applying for some other jobs casually. I wasn’t in a rush, just wanted to see what was out there.

Here’s where the issue starts. One day when I was out sick, she was able to guess my gmail password and logged into my personal gmail account. During that time she went through a ton of my emails without permission, focusing primarily on the application updates and my credit card information. While I was out sick, she called me yelling at me and telling me that I was a terrible employee and how dare I apply for other jobs and not tell her. If I found another job I liked, I was planning on giving her notice but she essentially stalked me and found out without my permission. Later she tried to claim she “thought it was her email” but she doesn’t know how computers work and in the history it showed exactly which emails she double clicked on (since it opened a new window it shows up as its own URL) and she looked through about 15 that all were addressed to me and had my name at the top, so I know this was a lie.

As soon as I got back to work she fired me saying that my work was not up to her standards, but obviously it was because she was upset that I was looking for other jobs. This was an office management job and she was having me babysit her dog and do her laundry, that’s an issue in itself, but I was doing everything she asked me to do.

So back to the background check, they didn’t ask “may we contact this employer” and I am afraid if they contact her she will just say terrible things about me. She is a very petty woman and is very regularly rude to former employees, customers, and vendors. I am not sure what I should do. Should I tell my employer and give them a heads up? Or should I wait to see the results of the background check. I am currently a federal employee and was able to pass their background check but I am worried that this 3rd party company will have a different process

Hello friends I am new to this sub so forgive me if this has already been asked 100 times.

I live in Hawaii and i’m currently relocating to Minnesota (I’m originally from Wisconsin so yes I know it’s cold lol). I bought a super overpriced used 2018 Jeep Cherokee Limited with like 85,000 miles on it. Although I haven’t had any major issues with it, Jeeps just aren’t reliable and I bought it mainly because it had 4WD (and I had no one in my life to talk me out of that idiotic decision 🤦🏼‍♀️).

As I said i’m relocating to Minnesota so I will be getting a new or used car. I would like a regular or subcompact SUV, something extremely reliable and does decent in the snow and gets decent gas mileage. No matter what I will be getting snow tires but I am trying to figure out what car I would like to get. As of right now I don’t have a big down payment for a car so my plan is to do a 36 month lease while I save up 12-15k for a down payment then get a practically new used car. That being said, I have no idea what car to lease. After research i’m leaning towards a Mazda CX30 or CX5 but I don’t know anything about cars so idk if that’s a good choice. I am not picky when it comes to style or color, but I want something that will without a doubt last that 36 months with 0 issues. I do need an SUV due to size but also because I need AWD at a minimum. Please give me your suggestions, I am open to anything and really not fussy about brand, trims, engine capacity, or anything like that. I only drive it to work and for personal use, so very light use. I just need some people who know cars and know the durability of newer models (2025+) cars.

I can’t afford anything crazy expensive, so no luxury cars or anything, just a normal SUV that’s good in cold weather.
