Talking about working in the secular world, any advice on how to actually live a Christian life in the workplace?
I had the most awkward conversation between my boss and me regarding working in the workplace.
Well, he was being honest telling me that I needed to know how to not tell everything to my bosses, either act smart or basically telling me to 'lie'.
What does that make a difference becoming a salt and light to the world and on the other hand knowing how to cover my own butt if anything goes wrong?
It's so challenging.
It depends from one person to another I suppose. Whenever I lie, I look for the truth within that lie, understanding one lying may get a person to the truth in a different angle.I had the most awkward conversation between my boss and me regarding working in the workplace.

It's a complicated philosophy that comprises of how painters tell the truth by painting lies (or also known as allegories). For example, a grass may be painted as blue, and not green, but to someone people, it must be painted in blue for him or her to look at the aforementioned grass in the first place. Only then will he understand why the grass can be painted in blue, even if the grass is really, actually green in our reality.
You can choose to not listen to me, as it is merely a personal opinion.
But know this, your guilt should guide you accordingly to when you know you've done something wrong, and the idea is to keep talking to people about it. I HAD TOO MANY PEOPLE trying to hide the truth from me by completely avoiding that topic of conversation, especially from CHRISTIAN SALESMEN. Too many Christians trying to sell dishonestly, and then go back to church on Sundays to relieve that guilt...while keeping quiet about it.
