The top answer should be "I lie in polls". Almost everyone exaggerates their contributions to a project or the benefits of it. Exaggeration = lie
It's like when you tell a girl you're gonna fuck her all night long but then you jizz the first time and you're done. You knew that would happen but you lied anyway
Interviewers ask you about too much to risk it. I used to put things on my resume that I had dabbled in but after a few interview questions where I had to say "I only used that technology a little and can't really tell you much" I realized I was only hurting myself. Now I only include things that I can talk in depth about. This has also reduced the number of recruiters that email about PHP positions.
Lying about problems at previous jobs is ethical and part of the game. Corp. will not tell you about abuses and other nasty stuff, and you do not tell how your previous employer screwed you up [if it happened].
