The phrase "to be honest" is to me, the sign of a bullshitter. If you have to say it a lot (more than once a week) it's time to ask yourself why you're saying it so much. Seriously, it implies that the rest of the time, you're not honest, which makes me wonder why I should beleive you now. I say this because I've been listening to one of my co-workers tell other employees who aren't here today, who haven't been here working since the Really Bad Times starting, all about the exciting, upcoming your-skills-for-continued-employment plus 500,000 pesos deal.

I have to ask if it's worth bringing along people who have been watching Sally Jesse Raphael for a month when the rest of us have been here, taking phone calls from the press, from liquidators, from customers, pretending as if everything was okay. Maybe I'm just bitter because my group has continued to work our asses off while these other folks are chillin, hard-core, old school style. Yes, I think that's it.
