I'm looking for a job, but my resume is pretty scarce. I'm starting to think that's why I haven't been getting any interviews at all. Usually I'm too nervous to lie, but I have no real choice right now, so I'm trying to think about any obvious holes that might end up in my story.

    Definitely. I have autism and it makes me hate lying to people. Not for any moral reason when it comes to job hunting, I'd steal from businesses instead of working for them if I were absolutely certain I'd get away with it. But the act of telling the lie makes me extremely anxious that I'll overlook something important and sound like an idiot.
