Hazarth95283yI don't know how bad it is for you, but I'd say that sometimes you just have to look after yourself. God knows the world isn't going to do that, and the company definitely wont. So if It's lying to maintain your mental health I don't think that would make you a bastard.

Eklavya17683yRemember what happened if we lied in front of our parents? We were excused after some scolds
But eventually, we learn something that is good, this is a common problem with everyone but still, there's always a way out of it and consulting with your close ones is one of the best things I personally used to do :D -
What is "fake sick corporate emails"? I've been working with corps for years and I honestly don't know what you mean.
Kudos for the not lying personal qlty! I can relate. "it is what it is, evereone's gotta deal with the truth" -
@Cyanide Mental health is just as important as physical. Probably more so. I just tell them I need a mental health day. It is like saying, "I feel like shit and just cannot cope."

@rutee07 this is what I do. Although my employer probably would accept "I need a mental health day" as a reason, I don't really want them to notice how many mental health days I've taken this year, lol.

I never used to lie. Unless it was absolutely necessary which was very rare.
But now, I can lie so easily.
It all started with those fake sick emails after entering coroorate. And now I have become a lying bastard.
I don’t like myself when I lie but the necessities have become frequent in corporate.
Fuck corporate man!
Fuck it with porcupine quills!
