I'm being paid $26 an hour at my job because I make myself sound more qualified than I actually am
That's a big responsibility. Do people catch you in the lie?
Yes, I've been caught several times over-rating myself. I guess it's the same as lying.
You shouldn't lie about your qualifications. People may fire you and if the industry is small, you won't be hired anywhere.
I don't get it. What's the big deal?
I'm just trying to say that lying in your job isn't good because you don't have the skill set and honesty that employers are working. If you don't have those skills, then you should be finding another job. How are the employers going to feel to hear you lie, and them waste resources on it?
