    How so?..

    Ive been really delving into my brain to pull out instancess..and theres a couple im not saying im perfect and I hope nobody calls themselves perfect. But its the GREY areas that are really getting to me...like when I used to work at a grocery store we employees would eat/drink products that had been broken or that were a couple days out of day like chocolate milk, etc. To the owner it was stealing, but to us employees the mentality was, "we have to throw it out anyways." Thats whats bugging me. Also ive never stolen anything worth anything from my employers, except maybe some pens or something. gahh....my brain hurts.. :confused:

    thanks for the input!

    You'll be fine. I've taken and passed the poly twice. Just...be honest. Any "instances" you think of during the interview phase bring them up and you will be able to survive the actual poly process.

    Read the stickies here, but be ready to say you read about the poly online. They will ask. Don't go to polygraph.org it's a waste of time and will confuse you.

    Wear a suit. GL!

    Thanks for the input!

    Whats buggin me though is like.. what if they ask
    "Besides what you have told me, have you ever stolen anything else?"
    and i say No, but in the back of my mind im trying to think threw all the years lol.. iono..

    BUt then i know a fella who is really close to me actually that was trying to get hired as a Corrections officer and he took the poly told the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth, and he still failed. he was devastated, because he told them EVERYTHING..thats what makes me nervous.

    If you can't think of it between now and then, i can't imagine how anything else is going to pop into your head during the test.

    You have plenty of time to search your memory of anything you have ever stolen...
