Re: corporation is asking for fingerprints
You have to give the fingerprints, if you want to continue working for a company that has access to such extensive government information.
If you really think it's obtrusive and unnecessary, you'll have to seek legal recourse to show why you should be allowed to keep your job.
As you know, it looks pretty suspicious that you're willing to submit to all sorts of credit and background checks, but not willing to give your fingerprints (which is the only way to really prove you are who you say you are).
Every lawyer in the country has to give fingerprints just to practice law (we're officers of the court), so you're in good company!
