Yep kiss butt and lie, their all over the place, I think its funny what some small thinkers are willing to do to get a 2-4% raise a year. They all get whats comming to them though, it might be indirectly but they do. Their all lacking in abilities in some respect and compensate for it by lieing and i've never met one that didn't lose it all eventually. Job, Wife, Kids, Freedom. It particularly discusts me when minimim wage people lie and back stab for a quarter...lol
Steve tell the truth did you make a mistake on schedualing John to open yesterday because he says you two discussed it, ummm ahhh nooo...heres a Quarter...lol freaking spineless!

My sidekick on the job is a professional liar. I've learned to believe only a fraction of anything this person tells me.

So...if this is a country of mostly Judeo-Christian religion, how come there are so many liars and backstabbers? It seems the least religious people I know have the most integrity....

That's a stupid, underhanded jab.
There are some people in this life who are always looking to take lame, anecdotal potshots at "Liberals" or "Christians" or "Conservatives" or whatever... The sort of person who could stand in a field of Roses and not be able to smell them without blaming the bees on "Bush" or their sunburn on "Clinton" or whatever.
It's lame. |

Lame? It is the truth. This nation ascribes to being predominantly Judeo-Christian. So tell me how they justify the cutthroat lying behaviors at work, but can sit church on Sunday? |

Take the energy you are putting into being bitter and angry about the behavior of others into creating something positive in your life. Worry less about others and more about yourself. |

I don't think you can make generalizations like that, nebulous. I have friends from the conservative end, as well as the liberal secular side. They are all great people, hard working, decent, etc.....or I wouldn't have them as friends! So is really a human nature issue. I personally feel more comfortable around the Judeo Christian mentality, as I KNOW they have been given a moral base, then if they are "being bad" I can call them on it!  |

I feel ya...
I have an employee, she's really good, hard worker, does everything she's told. The only problem is she's a pathological liar. Not about her work, but about her personal life. She talks about parties she went to, people she had over, friends that came to visit...only to find out later none of this ever happened. She'll lie about the smallest things; for instance, one time she said she went to this donut shop and they were out of glazed so she had to get a different kind. Turns out she never went to the donut shop. It's so weird...but like I said...a terrific employee.  |

How did you find out she was lieing? anyways I think people ie because they are lonely and have nothing to talk about so they make up something just so they can talk to people.

I think lying is hard-wired into some people. Genetic. They will tell you they had chicken for lunch when they really had beef. They lie when it doesn't even matter.
I think it's evident when these people are young that they will be lifelong liars.
