PRESUMPTION!

Hi steemians, I trust you are doing great! I like to start with a story; A gentle man went for shopping in a mall, at the entrance, he saw a boy and a big dog lying by his side. The man asked the boy, 'does your dog bite?' He said no!

The man moved over, playing with the dog, alas! The dog bit his hand. He shouted! but you said your dog does not bite! The boy replied; that's not my dog.

That sounds funny? But many a time we act just like that man, we presume things.
Countless numbers of people suffer heartbreak and many have received life injury because of presumption .

A lady presumes a guy is in love with her just because of their closeness and do all in her capacity to make him feel good. She received his wedding invitation with shock thinking they were in love all these while. The guy reminded her that they are mere friends.

During the plan of my wedding, I presumed my best man knew everything about planning, I didn't ask necessary questions, it was some days to the wedding that I discovered few things were not in place.

The best way to enjoy interpersonal relationships is to clarify things and asked necessary questions to avoid story that touches the heart.

The same thing applies in the corporate settings. Did you just secure an employment or you are just been promoted?

Seek Clarification on your job description to avoid role conflicts.
