the first line of the quote: "Trust no one..."

Yipes, Stan, I'm sure glad I don't work with you.


We do some pretty serious stuff on the Day job.
The corollary to "trust no one", is "never, never assume". It's this latter that I was thinking of. It is the very first "pearl" on a list of pearls that we give to the residents, interns and medical students on their first day in the surgical intensive care unit.

Trust me when I tell you, that the moment you relax and think you've got it all figured out, is the moment before which life and fate slap you upside of the head and bring you back to reality.

On the Day job, when we make assumptions, some one gets hurt. It never fails. Moreover, we're held accountable for our outcomes; as we should be. Of course, I'm sure there are many other Day jobs out there in which this is true.
