I would never lie sir, even if it creates positive impact.

Do I know to make up that one lie how many other lies I have to say in future?

No. A lie can never yeild a persistent positive outcome. Rather we must deal with the consequences even we are not ready for it, doing that won't harm but will prepare us other unknown challenges.

Absolutely not, I would rather face truth and it's consequences. If I am able to lie for the sake of company then I can lie to anybody including myself to justify almost everything. I would walk away with my head up not the other way.

No, I can't, because I said lie my company would safe from temporary, but not for permanent. By saying lie, in some condition, the problem would solve and you have helped your company from a bug, but I am sure "Because of telling lie in that situation, the company should face so many problems in future".

Sir lying is a sin, but if the company would go bankrupt if I wouldn't lie then I would lie on behalf of the company but later on work on that lie or situation and ultimately turn it to be the truth and face my customers with confidence and would not regret later for the lie I have spoken.

Suraj said:   6 years ago
Depend upon situations, if my lie doesn't hurt anyone, depend upon consequences, if its a situation of someone's survival. Then I may tell lie. For personal benefit definitely won't tell lie. But I don't know when I last time lied and I hope that kind of situation not arise where I should compromise with my ethics.
