Don’t you feel for this poor fella? He has a ton of homework assignments due. Instead of buckling down and getting on with it each night he was no doubt out partying. Hey I’ve been there. A guy has his priorities, after all. The difference is I did all my own homework.
$40 for a “ton” of homework, even multiple choice, is really quite laughable. Especially if you want me to know my stuff. I do appreciate the promise of future jobs if this works out however, it’s good to know there will be lots more cheatery down the line.
I’ve always been tempted to answer one of these cheater ads and deliver hideous work… like a completely plagiarized term paper, taken from well recognized sources. Yes, it would take some work and imagination, but at least one of these creeps would get what’s coming to them.
Yeah, I’m bitter.
What a great idea, Laurie! :)
