Lying, or telling lies, is defined as “not telling the truth,” which has been debated many times. Is telling a partial truth lying? Since the definition is so abstract, I will be using partial truths as lies in this essay.
That being said, lying can easily break someones trust in you. If you were to lie to someone, who else is to say you won’t lie again, or haven’t lied before? This can make you appear not only shady, but untrustworthy. People could refuse to hire you if you had a history of lying.
