Funny story about that... I once applied to work at Radio Shack when I was 17.

My interview went great and the manager was ready to hire me. All he had to do was administer a scantron like test for the corporate office. The test had various questions about honesty. For instance, "if you saw someone stealing what would you do?" or "What would you do if a sibling stole from the store?"

After sending in my answers the results came back- I was too honest, and probably lying on the test. The manager didn't really know what to do and stalled for a couple days. He wanted to hire me but needed to get the okay from a superior. I decided waiting around to see if honesty was respected in the company was too much for my wallet to handle; so I started working at Sears in the Tool Territory.
