I know some psychiatrists make sure that they cover themselves well so that they can't get pinned or blamed for something. I brought up family issues, SSDI court hearings and my psychiatrist immediately stated "I don't get involved in family issues", "I don't get involved in court hearings". Physicians know how to play the game.
I reluctantly took leadership for a project at school, it involves programming, now I'm sure I'll get called again, and I don't think I can't always do so well. I could be called a fluke or 'lucky'. That's what I hate. I never volunteered to take charge either.
