Lie as much as you can back up convincingly in an interview or on the spot at the job.

i never thought about lying on your resume or application, because they can background check that shit..

But if it works.. maybe i should try it..

Yeah of course. I spent a lot of my late teens, and early 20's partying. What was I going to write.

"Will get drunk on most Thursdays after being paid, then call in sick on Friday".

I used to work in the aquaculture field when i was younger. Fish farms.

"I wasn't fired from my last job. My boss felt that the company was holding me back and that I was ready to move up in the world. So he excused me."

Shit like that.
