That’s a good way to get blamed and let go.

But sometimes it’s a catch 22. I’ve had numerous times where systems simply didn’t work.

I brought it to my managers attention and they didn’t care.

Then later I leave in disgust or get fired. All my fault. I should have used my magical powers to convince my manager he’s wrong while not making him feel stupid.

Ultimately if you’re on the titanic it’s easier to grab a life boat vs trying to avoid the ice berg.
