Why do I feel that way? Well, because I think that the mentality and attitude going on right now really sucks and I do not want that kind of irrational mentality to be a part of our future.
I made a deal with a client earlier this week to perform work on some off his manufacturing tools. I got a full-schedule, so I really made a detailed and resonable deal with the client so that he really knew what was going on in my business. I told them what they needed to know about my work and time needed to perform a good work. We agreed, but he was a bit grumpy about it (that irritated me)
Guess what he did today? He just walks in hours before and rants and rave, blame my co-workers for not living up to the deal. He lied, told them that I had promised to finish the work before the deadline we agreed on. He broke the contract and our gentleman agreement. He did not know that I was there, so I just walked out, right into the ranting and told him that he was lying and that I had never made such a deal. I know this for sure, because I know my business and trade, I would never have made such a deal based on the facts that we have at our company.
And this is how it is, people make deals, talks and agree with each other, but as soon as the work starts, the details of the deal is being obscured.
I found this mentality in this chapter in the double bind-book by Marion Stricker.
