Resume: Should I Lie?

After reading the article on lying on your resume, it really got me thinking. How often do people actually lie on thier resumes? Is thier a common thing? Are nurses and doctors and teachers lying on thier resumes and not getting caught? That is scary. I would never have even of thought about lying on my resume, and I cannot fathom the fact that someone would lie about something so important.
I also felt that the article was a bit biased by trying to make us feel sorry for Mary. Yes she was a wonderful worker and all, but someone who would lie about something as big as a masters degree deserves to be fired. Thier is a simple way for that not to happen to you, dont lie on your resume and dont lie to potential employers.
