While trying to decide how to handle this situation better, I realized that the whole mess was my fault and I would have to admit it to my boss. "I walked into his office, told him that I had made a mistake and then informed him of the complete facts. He replied in an explosive manner that it was the fault of the personnel department. I repeated that it was my fault. He exploded again about carelessness in the accounting department. Again I explained it was my fault. He blamed two other people in the office. But each time I reiterated it was my fault. Finally, he looked at me and said, 'Okay it was your fault. Now straighten it out.' The error was corrected and nobody got into trouble.
