whats the definition of mr nice guy? does this still exist.....

Think its all about striking the balance, one of the top management in my company said this to his staff. Trust is reciprocal, it takes two parties to establish trust and is mutual. If you trust me, then i will trust you. But it does not mean trust is build in a day?

This rule of thumb applies to how we treat people. How much can we give or put our time to someone, when the other side seems to be so distant?

So nice or not nice, i think it all depends also on the other side of the fence?
