A couple of weeks back, I told someone in my office that he had lost my trust because he could have done better. I waited, willing myself not to visibly fidget, while he processed this statement. He asked me how could he make it better. I shrugged and replied, "Sometimes you just can't". Without the full context this might seem harsh on my part, but I remain convinced he deserved to hear this....

You be you... "No thank you", he says politely but firmly. He has broken bones to get this attitude. So he is going to keep his attitude and they can keep their job.
