       Dilbert: You look good on paper, but how do I know you aren't lying
       about your skills? Interviewee: You should hope I am lying. Studies
       show that people who exaggerate their credentials tend to be more
       effective once hired. That's because misleading people is a valuable
       business skill. For example, I might need to convince our customers
       that our products are better than the competition. Or I might need to
       dupe some idiot into leaving my cubicle so I can concentrate. Anyone
       can learn technical skills, but lying is an art form. Dilbert: He
       doesn't have an honest bone in his body. Boss: Perfect. I'll tell
       Human Resources to send him an offer.
