Hardly surprising when the formula in most high schools nowdays is Copy & Paste + Edit(maybe) = DONE HOMEWORK. Given the lack of originality, future teachers may find their own biology report from ten years earlier staring back at them someday when they grade homework.

Or in a job interview

True story

The Frau used to work for Company X as a documentation manager. Fast forward a few years and now she is working for Company Y.... and interviewing prospective employees.

Enter this dummy who wants a job. Seems he works for Company X as a documentation manager... When The Frau asked him for a sample of his work, he gave her a document SHE wrote while at company X and claimed it was his. He did not even update it.

OOps Bad luck dude.
