Worried about Job

I just got offered a position for working with special needs people.  I'm  just really worried that if I do my fingerprints for background check, I might not get it. I mean, a couple years ago I pulled a fire alarm, I did Pti and community service which clears it up, but it's still going to be on my record. But the new job already told me congratulations and all that. I mean my drug test showed I was clean, I showed em I had good health through my physical, I even gave em certificates for my med training n cpr. And I have an associates in Arts. I don't know why I keep worrying and having anxiety about this fire alarm. Do you guys think I have anything to worry about?

Thank you!!!!!  I've been asking everyone and they said the same thing you did.  I guess I should be happy instead of worrying.

I'm going to say you have nothing to worry about. Why do you believe it's still on your record? If it was your first offense (which is such a minor one most employers won't care) and you did community service your record could be 100% clean. You got the job which is great! Focus on that. They gave you the job they have no reason to waste anymore time looking into your background.
