Remember, this survey is more about self-validation than what bosses actually think about their employees. I would theorize that most employees give their boss the benefit of the doubt, since it would be very difficult to get through the day otherwise. If you know with enough certainty that your boss does not respect you to admit it to yourself and to a survey, she or he must have been very obviously disrespectful, or the employee must be completely paranoid. I'd be more interested in the boss's opinion, really.

And the statistic that 86% trust their boss combined with the 91% think their boss trusts them means that 4-5% think they're getting away with something.
