Hello, I work as a freelancer for an essay writing company. This company has very severe attitude toward plagiarism. Although I am trying to write everything by myself - this is virtually impossible. Once I forgot to put quotes when cited resources and was accused of plagiarism. My employers didn't accept my explanations. I'd like to know if anyone was in similar situations.
And how it possible to deal with that?

Calvin, I understand your feelings, but if you want to work for some company you have to accept their rules. That's obvious, actually.
If you want to know more about their principles of plagiarism checking, ask them directly so that you get more information on the issue and be able to write as it is required.

In your case you could be more attentive when putting quotes  Wink or you can agree with the publisher other rules for plagiarism. Although the latter is very unlikely.  I had similar problems when I was just starting my writing carrier. But after several warnings and penalties my writing habits improved.  Cheesy
Good luck!
