My boss once tried to reason his way out of a contract with me. When he couldn't, he simply said he just wasn't going to honour that clause in the contract. It's amazing how you can annihilate years of built up trust in 3 seconds, by uttering that phrase, "I'm not going to honor it". A week later he wanted to make an unrelated deal with me. I had of course decided to leave the company. He was flabbergasted when I asked him if he would honour this new deal that he was offering.
