# I will be with the sales and marketing people,
hence the need to be prudent with the truth.

I have also been told categorically, that if one of our sales staff tells a lie, or promises something that isnt technically possible, I must not point it out.

# Oh yes

# OK
you are almost certainly more tactful than me. You haven't already decided that the job sucks. Lying to clients is good practice for when it really counts, so think of this as an infidelity training course.

# more tactful. Wouldnt bet on it.
Infidelity training is a good idea.
