Job dissatisfaction is on the rise and more an more people are finding it harder to find a good work life balance. Although opinions why varies, the fact is that thousands of people each day buy fake doctors notes to miss work or delay a test at school. This is not surprising when you think that most of us have told a "little white lie" at one time in our lives. Many would say that small lies are so common from politicians to used car salesmen that we often take them for granted. Clearly, we all have our own set of ethics we follow and the buying of doctor's excuses is an individual choice that is not for me to judge.
To date, no one has really studied the reasons behind the incredible demand for and purchase of fake doctors notes. As you may be aware, hundreds of people buy doctors excuses everyday. Clear, something is driving this tremendous demand beyond all reasonable expectation. Unlike other trends online, the demand continues to sore as opposed to peeking and then declining. One explanation may be job or employer dissatisfaction. Statistics show that the average worker will change jobs at least 5 times in their career. We also know that the number of hours worked is going up while benefits like time off are going down. As the job environment gets tougher, the easier buying of a doctors excuse on the Internet may represent the only power a worker feels they have.
Further, what about the decline in job benefits like health care. The problems with health care and the lack there of are of crisis proportions now. Simply read a newspaper or watch TV to see that the Health Insurance problem in the U.S. is a crisis. Perhaps that is another part of the reason thousands of workers and students buy a doctors excuse online everyday. With millions uninsured and the cost of health care rising access to doctors for a visit is growing more difficult. As more and more products and services move online it may not be long before many things done in a traditional doctors office are done on line. At least for now, this seems to include fake doctors notes.
Some have asked about the legality of fake doctors excuses. As far as I know they are perfectly legal in most cases to by and sell. Many see them as more of an ethical issue than a legal one. If you think you can "put one over" on your boss or professor with a fake doctor's excuse you buy more power to you.
