Terms of a Contract

I try to live my life by the book, or more specifically I conduct my business in a professional manner; by reading understanding and complying with the specific terms of a contract. If it says that I don't proceed with something until I have it in writing then everyone should be willing to live by those terms.

However, I do take exception to these terms when there is a mutal understanding and respect between parties. For example, if a client were to ask me to proceed with something and paper work would follow, and I respected their word, I would proceed without caution.

Hence, I can't understand why when I'm working with someone where there is mutal disrespect that they could have the audacity to request a favour of this type. I should stick to my guns and hold my position to the terms of the contract.

What are your thoughts?
