Q: "Do you like your job?"
A: "Yes" beeeeeeep!

Q: "Do you feel you are challenged and satisfied with your environment at work?"
A: "Yes" beeeeeeeep!

Q "Do you get on well with your colleagues in a friendly and supportive atmosphere?"
A "Yes, for the most part" beeeeeeeep!

Q: "How do you feel about your long term prospects with the company and future career within it?"
A: "Very positive and optimistic" beeeeeeeep!

:rotfl:
Somehow I think that reflects quite accurately how such a test would transpire at my work...

Obviously I'm poking fun here, but on a more serious note I'd hope that whatever job you are doing that requires a quarterly polygraph test is not just some bs sit in an office and take home a pay cheque at the end of the month deal. Like employee drug testing; I'd flat out refuse to participate, even if it meant loosing my job- what I do at home is my business and so long as I have the discipline to keep work and my life (which is far more important to me than making like a battery for my boss' pension fund) separate, then work can go and stuff themselves

It'd empty out the House of Lords and the House of Commons pretty quick!

But think of the money we'd have to spend on the needy
