How many times per day, on average, do you tell a little fib? |

I've been counting the last couple of days. I average about 4 lies per day, mostly at work. I also lie daily to my kids about Santa Claus.

I don't think any.
Of course it's possible that I just did. |

I don't think any.!!! So when someone asks you if you like their new reindeer Christmas sweater, you say, "No. It's absolutely hideous"? Radical honesty. I likey. |

I'd say at least 2 or 3. I'd have to start paying more attention.

Your nose is huge! Mountie, I did indeed forget, you lucky girl. But, do you ever sign off of emails to people you don't like with: Best, Mountie? Because signing with "Best" is almost always hostile. You don't really mean "Best". You mean "I hope you get covered with pox immediately". |

Actually, busted. Not on the "Best", as I sign most emails "Thanks, Mountie." But there is one person who I do not really mean
'thanks' too. I mean "What I would really like is for you to go lie on some train tracks for about 3 hours and see what happens."
So two or three times a week, lies! Also, lies pretty much anytime I speak to a referee. |

Good question. I almost always lie to my husband about how much something cost, but really he rarely asks, so it's not really lying.
Sometimes I lie at work...to patients. I know that's horrible, but sometimes you have to give people hope in a hopeless situation. But that's few and far between. Normally I try to be honest with the patients about their condition. But if something is going really wrong, it's amazing how calm and cool I can be, at least til I get on the phone with the doc. Then it's "You better get your ass in here right now!!!" I had this one patient that kept going into VTach, and as I was shocking him I'm telling him, "Don't worry; we've got this under control." Yeah, right. |

Lies constantly ... by omission. |

I always use "regards" in signing email, because it can be so many things, including "I'm watching you closely, asshole."
