If I were an employer, this statement would make me nervous about hiring you.
- unimpressive 14y agoWhy? The "In general," or the "I don't cheat..."?
- jfischer 14y agoIn this context, "In general" negates "I don't cheat...". Of course you may just mean that "nobody's perfect". However, there are people who habitually use lying as a tool to gain an advantage or place the blame on someone else. Without the opportunity to know someone better, I'd see little lies as a sign they are this type of person.
