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.

It depends on the situation and person, and it should not have any effect on anyone severally because a lie cannot remain hidden for a long time.

Well, that totally depends upon the impact the lie would create over the company and the people associated with it if it aims to bring a positive impact, with no means I would say no. But in case the lie is very unprofessional and can cause harm to society I would have to say no, as in future if revealed I'll lose my credibility as a professional.

Sir, I believe lying is not the solution, the truth and convincing power of individual matters a lot. By lying we simply get in a more troublesome situation, which is difficult to settle further.

Well, It's purely based on the situation. But personally, I don't like to lie and make excuses instead of making excuses and wasting my energy thinking about how I can cover up the situation I would prefer to find another way to resolve the problem talk to my team lead and find another way to resolve the issue.

It depends on the situation. If telling a lie will benefit the organization without causing harm to other people, I might consider it.

However, I will not lie if it goes against my values.
