The answer is the same answer as to anything else... "It Depends".
sadly it is......
at my previous place, I was on good terms with my management, so would happily laugh at them when they did not listen to me and had things go wrong.
Current place I would not do it in the same manner.
one of my other previous places had similar happen, I spoke to management who said nothing they can do, I have to live with it. My response was to resign... They were not interested in me, job satisfaction, quality of life, they just wanted to save money. So I happily walked.
