assume or not to assume?

[bigpaul]

the title of the thread is "assume or not to assume" and I think your assuming a heck of a lot. people being people, and having been around a lot longer than you have-I know people will not behave how you expect them to....if i'm gonna assume then assume the worst of people-sooner or later they'll prove me right! however I think some of us give people more credit than they deserve.
