Your reputation will precede you.

So.

Do what you say you'll do. Don't do what you've said you won't do.
Which can be said as:
If you make a promise, keep it.
And the other side of that:
If you don't know you can keep a promise, don't make it.

Ride for the brand. Which means: since you're getting paid, be loyal.
And give them their money's worth. If you have a doubt about it, do more, not less.
Doesn't mean you can't quit and go elsewhere, just when you're at one job, that's where your loyalty is.

And always remember, just because you do these things, it doesn't mean everyone else is too. Trust is built one brick on another, and that goes both ways.
