It takes minutes. Unless they interviewing people about you which can prolong the process

You are most likely waiting for someone to actually do it (paper is sitting on someone's desk and they are either too busy or doing a lot ahead of yours)

I have, after the first week and a half he said their HR was on vacation, then just last Friday the guy was on vacation. Called today and no one will be in until 3. So I'm gonna call a bit later. I'm a reasonable guy, if I'm not getting the job just say so, that way I don't dwell on some false hope. I do have a misdemeanor on my record but I was honest and upfront about it on my application, in my first interview and my second interview.

You must be taking about a credit report. Criminal history just doesn't fall off....its not a moving violation we're talking about.
