Work Talks
On creative lying to coworkers

Vincent:

As mentioned in today’s meeting we will have a little game at the next meeting during lunch. This game is one of my favourite games, it’s called My Little Secret.

 

What I need from each one of you is a little fact or secret about yourself that no one else knows in the office, but it is something you don’t mind sharing with others. It could be an achievement or something you did in childhood, a current hobby or interest. Please submit your secret or fact about yourself to me by end of day Friday. During our luncheon on Tuesday, we’ll guess who the secret/fact belongs to.  Also if you have a fun photo of yourself (it could be related to your secret), please send it to me by end of day Friday.

 

If  you have any questions please let me know.

 

Vincent: help me make up something

Me: You should say you’re into taxidermy

Vincent: whats that

Me: And then find a way to get a picture of yourself with a stuffed raccoon or something

Vincent: oh haha

Me: And then see how long you could keep up the joke

Vincent: they’d just think im a weirdo and talk behind my back

Me: They already do

Me: hahaha kidding, I don’t actually know if they do

Me: But probably, you are kind of weird

Vincent: haha

Me: But you know what would be so hilarious? One of them would eventually go “… are you really?” and then you could go

Me: http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/ee413/ZenLikeCalm/Screen%20Shot/NopeChuckTesta-2.jpg

Vincent: haha they would believe it too

Me: Right!?

Me: It’s the perfect crime 

Vincent: elizabeth is recommending the following

 

Oh, this could be fun. How about…

 

1.    You were born a female.

2.    You actually can’t read or write

3.    You are an illegal immigrant

4.    You once had a twin, but you killed it in utero and absorbed it as food

5.    You once had a twin, but he’s been declared criminally insane and institutionalized… but the catch is YOU are actually the insane one and you tricked your twin into getting imprisoned

6.    You are a secret ice dancing aficionado

7.    You like to eat hippo

Me: I’m sticking by taxidermy
