this is true just in general even ignoring AI.

When you make a mistake, the boss is hard on your heels, if the mistake is found to be on the bosses part, magically it's no longer a mission critical mistake.

The company I work at (as a warehouse worker) wrote down in their AI policy that "Not utilizing AI is considered a financial risk"

Classic scapegoating. Or "not made here" type of stuff.

Way before AI, when I worked in somewhat-sensitive industry, my bosses wanted even smallest changes to the codebase be ticketed, documented, and reviewed for being malicious, leaving a paper trail for regulators. But pulling in thousands of NPM packages? Abolutely fine.

Similar. But Top: my boss when I get a 3 star review from a tourist because there was heavy traffic (how is that my fault)

Bottom: my boss when he pays me too little because bullshit reasons and I have to contact the student employment office.

I got fired because i made one bugger mistake (just didnt do it Entity Framework but with SQL querys) but the senior devs best friend, litterly comitting the master password his password and user login infos into the master branch, gets to stay!
