I consulted there years back. Helped them relo to a new building. Dolly in one hand, network layouts in the other. After the relo was done, I transitioned to handling trouble tickets along with other consultants.

After a couple of months, our "leader" grabs me and his lieutenant for a special project. We had done a few of those before, I was up for it. We all went for a ride in one of the company vans. Which have only two seats. My job? Make sure the empty rack in the back of the van didn't fall over.

Dude didn't bother to slow down for a number of speedbumps. He let me go that same Friday.

In retrospect, it is always a stupid idea to extend too much trust, when any trust has not first been earned.
