His claim might be wrong, or misguided, but it matched up well with what I was talking about.Stephen Machanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889420142382665461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1930028682625884191.post-20292868652776565102010-05-22T00:29:55.502-04:002010-05-22T00:29:55.502-04:00I have to laugh at this comment. I think it really...I have to laugh at this comment. I think it really made a straw man out of what I was saying. I'm not saying and never meant to imply that deceit was created by Future Shop, by any means. <br /> <br /> The point I want to make is that lying has become so integrated in some aspects of society. Lying is not only accepted, but expected given the context of the situation. I also wanted to point out that the question being asked in the interview really accomplished something different and unexpected than what was intended. <br /><br />However, rightly or wrongly I do think that people have become expected to lie or exaggerate for job interviews and I'm not sure this was so common place in the past, although I don't know how I could prove this belief.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for reading and the response to my blog. I appreciate the comments and hope you continue reading.Stephen Machanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00889420142382665461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1930028682625884191.post-1423445299742218082010-05-21T21:45:19.779-04:002010-05-21T21:45:19.779-04:00"I think what this question really shows is h..."I think what this question really shows is how far our society has come in understanding the context of questions, because that is really what the question is about. People generally know the context of questions and are able to answer them within that context. This changes the questions from being actually honestly answered to one where people are looking to give the best response."<br /><br />Really? You honestly don't think that people in the past were capable of imagining motives behind questioning and just blindly answered whatever they thought was true? So no one lied for his or her own advantage before computerized tests invented by The Future Shop?<br /><br />How did oracles work? Snake-oil salesmen? Fortune tellers? Seductors of all genders? Courtesans, scheming nobility, business people, etc.? Are you familiar with the elusive beast known as the double-cross?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
