I’m not sure things are so black and white. Although I would agree that trust is earned, I don’t think trust is the most important thing. Rather than relying on trusting other people in the workplace, it would be better to develop a system where people both trust you and rely on you. If I go to my manager and admit to him that I have problems, he will immediately suspect two things. One, that I don’t get on with people, and two, that I might rat him out one day. I have not been able to apply these ideas in real life, as I have been much too idealistic. I’m looking for a new strategy.
