I have a base amount of trust/distrust I assign to everyone. Some people go up in trust and some people go down, but nobody is completely trustworthy. Even my parents have lied to me and hurt me in the past. I love them and trust them more than most people but I still know they are absolutely capable of betraying me.

I mean you are making sense. I still don’t see the issue with keeping a little bit in reserve for those potentialities.

How? Anyone you know could betray you at any moment for various reasons. Simply because it’s unlikely doesn’t mean it’s impossible.

Unfortunately if I’m going over a cliff it’s a solo adventure and I don’t plan on coming back up.

It’s just logical.

I don’t think it’s wise to ever trust another person 100%. You should be aware that anyone could turn on you in the correct situation with the correct pressures.

I don’t need a job that brings me joy. I just need one that pays the bills and doesn’t make wanna walk into traffic after every shift.

Some people get way too comfortable because they only ever run into people whos default reaction is “flight” because they forget that there is another reaction type that some of us have called “fight”.

My little brothers learned really fast that jumpscare “pranks” on me were a bad idea because when someone jumps out at me I tend to react by striking. Probably because I had an older brother growing up that “jumped” me all the time going up so I got used to doing things that way.

This is why I just stay home on Saint Patrick’s day. Green is my favorite color and I pretty much never wear it, but if some random person pinches me I am very likely to react by punching them.

I hate being touched by people I don’t know. Holiday be damned.

I keep my Grinch ass home.

Best advice I ever got was to treat job interviews as 2-way. Ask them why the position in empty. Why did the last person that had your position leave?

Not to be outright combative, but the interview should be so both the company and you can get s feel for each other.
