Less. I have days in the week when I don't need to say anything to anyone at all - except of course for all you fine people, all of whom I absolutely love and respect.

Indeed. It's one reason I don't bother with the "How are you" after "Hello." Most of the time, when someone asks, "How are you?" they don't really want to hear, "Oh my wife just left me because I bludgeoned her goddamn poodle because it killed my adorable kitten, Admiral Fuzzypoofkins." They just want to hear, "Fine."
It seems pointless to pose a question when you don't really want an answer.

I don't speak enough in a day to average 4 lies. I follow the principal that it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.

Damn... you're one of those scumbags from HR, aren't you?

If you think that a candidate is a moron, why don't you just tell them that? Getting their hopes up that they stand a chance for the job just makes things worse

 

[IGBT]

..ahh but some are so good at it.

 

[SmoochyTX]

I don't have time to tell nothing but the truth. Lies are quicker.

 

[Farang]

You want answers, you want the truth?

 

[npoe1]

I'm in resource management. I do lie a lot more.

 

[n7]

I hate the fact that this is true

Well, if you were to work at Lockheed Martin hiring individuals, I would certainly hope that I would not be that person.


... because I need a job.


And I don't really think I lie. At least I can't remember telling any blatant lies throughout the day. To say I need a job is God's honest truth. Unfortunately

 

[Maleficus]

I haven't lied once today, I lie very very rarely.

 

[ViviTheMage]

probably

 

[Xstatic1]

2) i have an IQ of 200
3) i'm a virgin

[Exterous]

I do electronics installation and retail. I think we all know what that means

 

[DangerAardvark]

4 a day? I lie 4 times an hour. You ever hear someone on the phone with their girlfriend? That guy's lying 4 times a minute.

 

[0roo0roo]

how well your girls looks compare with jessica alba or angelina jolie is best answered with a lie.

 

[aplefka]

I don't know. I'm going to count tomorrow and get back to you on that. Good thing I have 4 of my 5 classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

 

[Geekbabe]

I'm in CS,I prefer to think of it as smoothing and buffing our client relationships
