Consider that you may be making messes that you are unaware of, and that layers above you may be cleaning up all the time. The "bottom of the pyramid" is not all knowing and a reservoir of wisdom.

Look, I'm just saying it how I've seen it.

When I create messes I get fired.

When I fix messes my boss gets promoted.

This has been the case anywhere I've gone. It is the reality most places I think. Companies that operate differently are the exception.
