Liar liar …..profession

  • Belly35
    Political personnel, no question about it, that profession.

    I’m looking to buy a truck (used) and have been faced with a number of sales personnel I would have to say that 50% I have found to be stretching the truth.

    I also have found that lawyers, accountants and computer geeks to not be the most trustworthy individuals also.

    Purchasing Agents and Accounts Payable are another group of liars... more than I would expect.

    What profession IYO has a tendency to be liars?
    IYO based on your personal life experiences what profession have you experienced being the most likely to be a liar?
    Why?

    Strippers don't really love me.

    I work in sales and learned a long time ago that lying to your customers or prospects always comes back to bite you in the ass. So be honest even if it isn't what they want to hear.

    You're talking to the wrong "computer geeks". I've always got straight answers out of IT people and even tech sales people at major stores. Although I am a geek so it's sort of cheating because I can always go "that's not true at all".

    Fixed it up a little for you. Perhaps that's easier to read.

    Midgets have always lied to me and I don't know why.

    I watched this movie called "Liar Liar" and the message was, "*Don't* lie." And that was a smart movie.

    I'd be happy to. Just trying to make life easier on some people. We all know that your posts can be quite hard to comprehend. Hell, you've even admitted it.

    Glenn Beck.

    I don't mean just him but all of the "news commentary" people. They make them look and sound like news programs but when people say "hey assholes, you just made that up" they're all "I'm just a commentator, I don't check facts."

    I'd lump Jim Cramer in there as well.
