Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Trust refers to a persons degree of confidence in the words and actions of another. There is some evidence that the predisposition to be trusting of others is a personality variable. Likewise some people are predisposed to be cynical and rarely trust anyone. Trust is especially important in forming and maintaining interpersonal contracts. An employee who trusts the supervisors, co-workers, and subordinates can function more effectively and is more likely to engage in organizational citizenship behaviors. Trust develops over time as the person observes and interacts with another. Managers can promote trust by:
1 Always meeting deadlines.
2 Following through as promised.
3 Spending time sharing personal values and goals.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
