Assault charges but not physical violence? What in the world? I'm so sorry you got that on your record.

I would look at smaller startups that might make it easy to just escalate to the CEO if you have a good explanation, rather than having an HR department stop you right away.

EDIT: I thought assault meant physical violence, but not harm while battery meant harm. I was wrong I guess?

Given that urinating in public can result in sex offender charges in some locales, I'm not surprised that you can have non-violent assault charges.

This basically doesn't happen, mostly an urban legend.

Some quick googling says that while highly unlikely, it is technically possible...so we're both right?

Apparently public urination can overlap with indecent exposure, depending on the situation, and the latter can result in a sex offender registry.
