I agree with you 100%. But in my opinion there is a huge difference between respect and "professional courtesy". In my dealings with people both in business and person interactions it starts with courtesy and goes from there. |
Yeah, I think there are probably some semantic subtleties in effect here...I see what you're saying.
I don't give the same respect to people I have just met as I do for my close friends - is that what you're getting at? I think that's using the words trust and respect interchangably when they are quite different. |

I don't hate, but I find it funny, and a little shallow. And I've met a few people from this very board who have acted in this very manner. Still to each their own.
I think that respect is a term that can very loosely be applied to this situation. As in, respect for one another as human beings, but no further than that. It allows both parties to be polite, and if possible, carry on some meaningful, or at least mutually enjoyable conversation. Those elitists that do not abide by this lifestyle paint an entirely different picture of themselves as it is. No point getting pissed off at them. Such as it is our choice to drop, other's choice is not to. It is their ignorance for biasing a personality or individual based on that sole fact, knowing very little, if anything else at all, about said individual. |

I think both are automatic until lost. That's how I treat people anyway. I think it's sort of an insult to assume a person is untrustworthy. Like, "Hi, nice to meet you...you're a piece of , prove me wrong." At least that's how I see it. :p |
I disagree, you cant just trust someone right off the bat, thats how youleave yourself open and vulnerable. I remember trusting your buddy that we met at system soundbar and he tricked me into doing K, yuck. |

This is what i was thinking. Respecting someone in that being
polite/courteous is just being HUMAN - which u can show anyone
Trust is something completely different. That's gotta obv be earned |

LOL! I shouldn't laugh, I'm sorry. :(
I understand what you're saying, but I'm not talking about complete and total trust, like the way you trust close friends and family. Obviously you still have to be smart/on your guard when meeting new people, but like Skipper said, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. It's just plain courtesy...and everyone deserves that, imo.
I just think it's rude, and it doesn't do anybody any good by assuming the worst. In my experience, I've been able to weed out the losers a lot faster this way too.
Whatever though, different strokes for different folks. Whatever works best for you is how you should do it. :) |
