Hard Question?

Question

Do you consider yourself to be 100% completely Honest?.......................................................

(ex:)
1. If you knew your best friend (who was soon to be married's) man/woman was cheating, would you tell?.....

2. If you found a wallet, loaded with cash, no ID, no one saw you find it, ..would you turn it in?.....
3. If you found the perfect job, the one you've wanted all your life, but to mark (convicted of a crime) on your application would guarantee you WOULDN'T be hired, would you mark it?..............................................................................


*** I would consider myself to be about 85% Honest. (wish it was more)

Thanks for answering.

****These are just examples of things that may happen to any one of us at any given time....PLEASE do not feel obligated to answer these specific questions*****

PS: Question #3 .....the convicted part means (as if you had already been convicted, and served your time) would you be honest about it....

Answer 1

Nobody is 100% honest. If you've ever felt like crap but responded to the standard greeting with, "I'm fine, how are you?" you've told a lie. The same holds true for any of life's other loaded questions, "Does this make my butt look big?" to "Was it good for you?"

A lie is a lie, whether it's the little white variety, an omission, or a whopper you make up to cover your a s s. I'm not sure what statistical formula would yield ones percentage of honesty, but the result would likely make us all hang our heads.

Answer 2

Hmm, I think no one is 100% honest. There are times we tell white lies to protect ourselves or other people, sometimes it is necessary. Like, for q.1, yes I would tell. I wouldn't want my friend to get hurt. For 2. I am not sure. It is hard. I think I might keep a bit but hand some most of it in. If it was a whole ton someone may be really missing it. The police will decide what to do with it. 3. I think I would not put I had been convicted, cause then it would be useless to apply.
It's hard to be completely honest, if someone said they were, they are lying. No one is perfect, I think we have to lie sometimes, sometimes for the right reasons, sometimes the wrong.

Answer 3

1. Yes, I'd probably tell!
2. I have been in that situation and took the wallet to the police station...I didn't take a dime.
3.Well, I have never been convicted of a crime ...so I will put down NO.

I am a totally honest person....sometimes it does work against me...but thats how I like being.

Answer 4

I consider myself to be honest for the most part. Maybe a little white lie every now and then but nothing that would affect anyone negatively.
1) Yes, DEFINATELY, I wouldn't want my best friend to get hurt worse in the long run and I know she would do the same for me.
2) GOOD question...I'm not really sure about that one because I'm not in that position, I donno...
3) Yes, they can always do a background check.

What's done in the dark always comes to the light.

Answer 5

I WOULD ANSWER AN EMPHATIC YES FOR ALL EXCEPT THE FIRST.
AT ANY COST I M NOT THE JDGE FOR MY FRIEND BUT AM A FRIEND OF HIM\HER SO I HAVE TO TAKE HIM\HER AS USUAL.
bein honest if i really don't know whom the wallet belongs i will definately like to be its owner untill and unless i find something of much importance that can be crucial for the pereson.
the answer for the third is definately no.not because i m ideallly very honest but because i personally feel that getting some profit at first and then paying for it whole life is unprefferable to have a normal and simple life.

Answer 6

1. Yes, my friend has a right to know even if they don't want to
2. I would turn it into the police but fully expect to receive it in the end. (No ID means the owner can't give any proof)
3. Why would I mark my record with convicted if I haven't been?

Answer 7

Yes, I would warn a friend. Actually, I have returned a wallet filled with cash. And I have never committed a crime nor would I, so I could say that #3 doesn't apply.

Answer 8

I know they're examples but...
1. ABSOLUTELY and hope they would for me
2. I wouldn't trust who I gave it to not to take it, but I would leave my information how to get ahold of me with whoever's in charge.
3. If the truth couldn't be found out, probably not.

So, no I'm not 100%. Need to work on that myself.

You're welcome.
