Well, sorry to inform you but you are wrong.
I have worked in many test, development and production environments in both big and small companies.
Never, one time, did any company permit a single login for multiple users. Never.
It is a violation of most company policies to do this and any company or system admin who would permit this is in the wrong job; as it is a basic, very basic, duty of a system admin to insure that there is one login per person, and an audit trait for each user; especially if the users have superuser privileges.
If a sys admin worked for me that insisted on a single login for multiple users, I would simply fire them immediately.
I'm going to close this thread, because we have already advised the OP on what he should do and why he should do it; and it's best we set an example of what are "best practices" and "acceptable practices" versus supporting bad ideas which are against policy at most companies.
