Okay, I fully expect to be slammed for this. What do all these posts about gaming the system to get early results say about the character of some of the new grads/nurse candidates? One of the prime requisites of being a nurse is good judgement. Boasting about or encouraging fraudulent behavior by using inaccurate or inadequate credit card information to get test results hours or days quicker does not speak well of one's judgement and maturity. Is this what we accept from our colleagues?
It may be harsh but I think this is a matter of integrity. I understand impatience very well, I understand wanting to know if all the work of school paid off, what I don't understand is how easily one can ignore the lessons of integrity and professionalism.
If one can lie to a faceless testing company how one respond when faced with a potential life threatening situation that requires, patience, integrity, and maturity. It's a slippery slope, a little harmless deception here may reveal character issues that come to light when real harm may be caused.
So, slam me, flame me, whatever, or I hope some will agree with me.
This reminds me of the people who bootleg DVDs and CDs .The rationale is well Sony has tons of money they can handle it. While their servers may be able to handle it servers have to be powered and maintained which costs money. At its core the person using the PVT is a liar even in our politically correct 2015 world.
The artists are affected by bootlegging. So they are not the same thing.
Servers have to be serviced and maintained anyway. Doing pvt with a gift card and getting "the good pop up does not affect that whatsoever.
Every single person on this planet is a liar.
Just like if marriage equality laws pass, then before you know it people will be marrying their pet ducks. Totally ridiculous in my opinion.
You mean people AREN'T marrying their pet ducks? Because I totally did it. Two ducks, actually, so now I'm a bigamist. Or a bigaduck. Or something.
Never mind. Carry on.
No that sounds awesome, I can't deny your glory
Yessssssss! :)
I kid, I kid. I got the point you were making, but I do believe society has placed value of importance on when hiding "truths" is required. Anonymity in a public Internet forum is a matter of safety. Not all is black and white, which I believe is the point you were trying to illustrate but in a slightly different context.

Speak for yourself. The fact that you think everyone on the planet does the same types of things that you are willing to do says a lot about your mentality.
