    Depends what you mean by "honest".

    I am honest, but I have broken the law on occassion I would never steal or betray a trust..

    I am true to myself and treat people as I would expect them to treat me.

    What kind of crazy, obtuse question is that? Do you mean if someone gives me too much change back, will I give it back? No.

    But will I give the change back to my wife after going to the shops? Yes.

    I could run around in circles with these examples, but I think that one is enough.

    (You don't actually think someone's going to post that they steal cars for a living, shoplift on a regular basis and enjoy holding up people who have just been to the money machine, do you?

    How exciting).

    I usually don't count the change so I would do the same. I figure that for every time I don't bring back the extra...they've also given me too little another time. (or charged me too much)

    the question is a bit ironic isn't it?

    If someone was, they'd reply 'yes'

    If someone wasn't, they'd reply 'yes' because they're not being honest.

    I know...and maybe the people who voted dishonest are really lying.

    It is supposed to be ironic.

    I will never, nor have I ever, compromised my principles.

    Unfortunately my principles are short on scruples.

    I am honest, but realize getting nowhere with it.

    honest people = suckers
    Of course I'm the man for the job! What is the job, by the way?

    I am honestly an honest person. I once found a womens handbag in a public garden and handed it in to the local police station.

    But I hate people/companies who are unhonest, last month I went for a drink with my girlfriend in the city centre of Hull, I went to the bank and withdrew £50 from the cash machine, I got two £20 notes and a £10 note. We then crossed over the road and went into the Yates Wine Lodge and went to the bar. As I was waiting at the bar I got a £20 note out of my pocket, I looked at it to make sure what it was just before I got served. A barmaid who only just looked old enough to be working there served me, I asked for a Budweiser and a Bacardi Breezer and handed over the £20 note.

    Then when I received my change I noticed I only hand about £5 in coins, so I interrupted the barmaid as she served the next person to tell her she had short-changed me by £10, I couldn't believe it she's short-changed me. She quickly looked in the till, then went and spoke to her supervisor who spoke to me and said he would checkthe till later to see if it was £10 up. If it was he would phone me the next day to apologise and I would get a free drink, but I would have to make my own way there (5 miles) to pick it up. So off I toddled extremely FK'ed off and went for a few more drinks before I went home.

    The next day and it got to 1pm and I hadn't had a phone call telling me about my £10. So I phoned them, I spoke to another supervisor at Yates Wine Lodge who said the till was not £10 over and that I was lying. Even though the guy who cashed the till up the previous night wasn't even in the pub the next morning according to who I was speaking to. So I told them what I thought of their establishment and said I would email the head office of Yates Wine Lodge to take this further.

    5 emails later and I still haven't had one single reply. So the moral of the story..... never go for a drink at Yates Wine Lodge if you want your bank balance to stay healthy.

    Keep it rural.

    No thats not really possible. If they were lying about being dishonest, then they of course would be honest, in which case they wouldn't vote for being dishonest.
