The thing is, they didn't turn around one day and say "Uh, okay guys. I'm really honest and this is all bullshit I promise. Come do business with me and we can be friends!" (paraphrased, I know you didn't say that).
It's that turnaround that makes people nervous.
People who call a spade a spade are okay - you know where you stand with them.
See what I mean?

The problem here is that you are equating bullshit with dishonesty. Those two things are not logically related. I act like an asshole at times, but I have never been dishonest with anyone.
