Re: Have you experienced broken trust ?
I have SOOOOO many stories on broken trust. I guess Ive learned over the years that people should always be kept at arms length until they prove they are trustworthy.
I work with this guy who is around my dad's age. He is such a nice guy and always tells me Im just like his daughter and wishes she was more like me - Ive no idea why. He and I work in the same department and have similar responsibilities. When I was a newbie with this company he would help me out here and there. But that was also part of his job at the time: mentoring/training me. Training was over 6 months ago for me. Lately, his work has gotten a bit out of control and he fell behind. Our VP had a talk with him and asked him what the problem was. He said it was because he is so busy doing my work and helping me, he cant his done.
Excuse me? When I heard this, I actually had tears in my eyes and had to go to the restroom for a few minutes. It hurt so much to see someone say something so mean out of the blue.
Now, I dont trust him at all. I am nice to him, smile at him, talk to him but there is no trust there.
