Lies that went on too longWhen you lie you often have to keep lying. Share your pain. When I was 15 I pretended to be 16 to help get a summer job. Then had to spend a summer with this nice shopkeeper asking me everyday if I was excited about getting my GCSE results. I felt like an utter shit. Thanks to MerseyMal for the suggestion.

I replaced someone at work called John.He was one of two Johns.
Now we have me, not John, and a real John.
The boss, being a bit of a twat, decided he would call me John. I believe the reason is 'fuck you, I'm the boss, I'll call you what I like'.
For almost a year, even though he was clearly talking to me, I would ignore him. Sometimes I would point out my name was not John, but usually I wouldn't react at all.
He eventually gave it up and started calling me by my real name. Every now and then though, when he calls out John's name, I will say 'yes?'.
Small victory . . . if the receission had got any worse, I'd have had to put up with it.
