We've all had jobs where one coworker has been able to simply play the game better. If you're the kind of person who lets their work speak for itself, depending on your field, you might actually be at a disadvantage. Having a coworker who brags about their work, takes too much credit, and does shoddy work that has somehow gotten through can make them look like a superhero even though their MO is cutting corners.
But in some professions, when the ramifications of bad work can be something like the injury or death of another coworker, the destruction of property, and your own public shame, people like this often have the tendency to meet their own professional roadblocks. In this situation, all our protagonist had to do was watch while his coworker made a large and dumb mistake. Luckily it was just small enough to result in some destroyed equipment rather than the actual loss of life or limb.
If you are currently working at a job where you have to do your coworker's or even manager's job for them, we wish you luck. Maybe for some catharsis, enjoy this time a Karen manager tried sabotaging an employee so that employee stopped doing her job for her.
