Little white lies

So I was having a little chat with my recruitment consultant today and he asked how I'd describe myself. I had a little panic, because all I do is go to the pub and I don't think that's a hobby or a personality trait. So I said sporty, not a complete lie as I occasionally go to the gym. Anyway, he asked what sport I play, so I said Hockey, as I was in the Ladies Hockey Team as a fresher. Thinking that would be the end of it, I relaxed slightly, ready to continue bullshitting about how great I am. That was not the end of it. Apparently this lovely chap used to be the captain of a hockey team which represented the North West and the captain of his university Hockey team. Why couldn't I say hopscotch! So he starts asking me questions about hockey tactics and positions, which I couldn't answer as I only joined the hockey team to go on socials.
It took a lot to steer the conversation away from hockey and I'm really hoping he wasn't left with the resounding thought that I'm a complete idiot.



I'm so not good at little white lies.
