You sound like you are accepting responsibility, not defensive and are using this as a growing experience. All very mature! I respect and admire your ability to see your error and take precautions not to repeat it. I'm sorry you feel so bad.... Be sure not to beat yourself up and keep things in perspective (which it sounds like you are doing). (((Hugs)))

Yeah, I accept responsibility, although it would have been nice if my boss at least talked to me about my performance before he decided on bonuses. I mean, he was so impressed with me that he gave me $1200 last quarter. He was like, "wow, you are amazing!" So, how does someone suddenly go from "amazing" to "bad" overnight? Wouldnt you, as a manager, suspect something was off?
idk. Just my 2 cents.
I mean, I do accept responsibility because it is 100% my fault, but I think he's a poor manager for not investigating what went wrong. (If he did, then he'd realize that I under reported my work.)
