I think Manglement is just being opportunistic: hoping/wanting
someone to make *their* problem(s) go away. Easier to buy in to
something and LATER blame that something for not being what it
*should* have been than to actually tackle the (THEIR) problem
themselves!
"I trusted <them> ... and <they> let me down (implicit in
this is that it is not *my* fault... I should be absolved
even from my poor assessment of their trustworthiness!)"
