Trust

Dad likes to say that when it comes to placing his trust in the people he hires, he does so either completely or not at all.

That's it. Either a person is trusted or (s)he's not. There's no in between, no such thing as "I trust them seventy percent of the time", no room for "I trust you, but..."

He's right of course.

I came up with the graphic above while thinking about this. No particular reason; I just thought it captured the concept succinctly.

Would also look good on a T-shirt, methinks.

I'll make the first reservation for a pair of such shirt, brian. Would look nice to move around in such.

Cheers!

Or a poster, maybe.

Substitute Trust with Loyalty, Love, Faith, Happiness, etc., and a series is born.

Or "Trust is Brianary." haha, why did I realize only now the connection of brain to brian? And i must say I am getting impressed with your diagrams. Better get copyrights for them. Cool dude!
