  15. How to NOT Aid a Cheater?

    Here's my update. I told her no. This lady is a rant queen, and she tried me. I'm not worried about her giving me a bad evaluation. I haven't even thought about that to be honest. She just plays the...

  23. How to NOT Aid a Cheater?

    Willing to put my career on the line? No. That's why I said I would never do it again. Unfortunately, I can't change the past. It happened. Do I feel terrible? Yes. All I can do now is say "no" and...
