Well I took a polygraph for the SDPD yesturday and it was the worst experience ever. I went into it a little nervous just because it was a polygraph but I figured I would just tell the truth and I'd be alright. I actually believed in the science and that lie detectors worked because if they didnt why would so many places use them right? So I took the test and what do ya know im a child molester. Who knew? I sure didnt. I also reacted to some other sexual questions but when he asked if I had ever engaged in a sexual act with a child I reacted a lot apparently. Its completely wrong. Maybe it was because I considered the sexual questions ridicules like sex with dead people and such. I think when I was asked the child question I was disgusted and angry about it because I thought about something happening to my little brother or something. For whatever reason this guy pretty much told me his machine said Im a dirt bag child molester and other things. I felt like having a breakdown. Im just so depressed about this. I really wanted the job and im being eliminated for something that cant be further from the truth. I didnt lie about a single thing on that test and it came back as like the worst thing possible. Maybe its just because I was uncomfortable with those questions? I may have answered and made a facial expression in a way that expressed how ridicules I thought it was. Still I was drilled about how this machine is accurate and how I was lying and bullshiting him and I was a dirt bag child molester. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS. I CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW WRONG THIS MACHINE IS. Is there anything I can do to help myself now? Im problem screwed cause any other police department I apply for is going to want to know why I was rejected and they are going to tell them it was because im something im not.



I AM NOT A CHILD MOLESTOR I DO NOT HUMP DEAD PEOPLE OR ANIMALS. I TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT EVERYTHING GOOD AND BAD. I thought I would be ok because I let everything out. I was honest. It came back as something that was so wrong that hurt me because its so disgusting to have someone think that of you. Im so depressed about this. Is there anything I can do to make this go away? I dont want people to think this of me. THESE TESTS DO NOT WORK AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE WAY THEY ARE BEING USED. I cant believe the results of this test. It couldnt have been worst. I would have no problem if I was eliminated by the sdpd for something that was true that I had done or just cause there were better applicants than me. But this is horrible.
