Unit 4 Blog Post

What would I do if someone used something I created without giving me credit? I would probably get angry! I write poetry, occasionally, and I would not a happy camper if it took me hours, days, or months to come up with the perfect poem only for someone to steal it and put their name on it. I have not (knowingly) been a victim of or contributor to plagiarism. I think people use it as a way of doing something at the last minute or not having to put an effort forth and attempting to try writing on their own. If I was in a situation like that, I would just rather not even do the writing. Getting a zero or an incomplete would be much better than the punishment that comes with stealing someone elses work, taking credit for it, and then getting caught.
