Comparing Notes Poll

I really don't know if this is something to laugh about or be a shamed of...

My sister had this project about conducting a mock survey in our neighborhood regarding the barangay's activities. It was one of those "thesis preparation projects" that would prepare any college student to the real deal. (However, I dare not tell my own story about that, it's just too bloody!)

After sweating through the paper works and brain storming, my sister finally got the questionnaires out. She asked help from our neighbors to distribute the questionnaires since she had school and a part time job to mind. The plan was that at the end of the day, she would go around on her way home to collect all the data she has gathered.

On one of her trips back, she found a very funny sight. Our neighbors were clumped together in front of their compound, most of them were answering the survey. My sister noted that one of the well known old men in our neighborhood was peeking at another person's survey answers. Apparently he was copying it down to the very last letter. In fact, it became more obvious when my sister collected the papers and saw under the heading of SEX/GENDER, he put in F.

Talk about copying - even on a mock poll? Some people just can't shake that habit.

  1. That was really shameful, Kuya Worthy. Hayst. How I wish every person would eradicate this ugly habit.

  2. hope so too, but when it has been a daily habit, especially at your old age, it would be really difficult to eradicate that...

  3. Most people don't take things like this seriously, especially if given by one they know. They view it as a waste of time. It's sad cause most people just don't give a f*ck unless it benefits them or something. =x
