    When my buddy is having imposter syndrome issues I tell him either he really is as good as people think he is, or he's a master of espionage and one of the greatest spies in the world, and either one is pretty cool.

    I volunteer at homeless shelters and record audio descriptions for the blind so often that no-one would ever so much as suspect that I might be a terrible person! Verily I have fooled them all!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

      Sure, we all know you're a sister of the guild. You don't have to hide it with us, you're in good company. Taking from the rich and giving to the needy is part of the gig.

    This is Garak grindset and should be employed in all workplaces. There are people that it's not only okay to lie to, but I'd say it's a moral and material imperative to do so, employers and the government make up most of that list. Embrace Constazaist/Elimist thought. Also good lying advice: seed backup lies to give an out for other lies ahead of time. Make up minor but chronic medical stuff and feign minor symptoms so you can use it later to get out of stuff, forget things on purpose every once in a while, generally pretend you're a bit more of a dunce, or on my case an oaf than you really are. And never tell the same lie twice.
