Be sincere and Be honest

1a. If you were jobless, do you want to be a waiter for a short time? Be honest.

1b. If you were unemployed, would you be a waiter temporarily? Be sincere.

Are these two sentences grammatical and ok to say?

Thank you very much, Teachers

Dear Mister Micawber!

- Why don't we use "please be honest" or "please be sincere" instead of "please be candid" in this context?

Thank you very much

I might say 'Please be honest' after I asked you if you liked my new hairstyle. 'Sincere'? – no.
