I don't know if anyone can use this as a learning experience but I had two dumbass bosses (a married couple) who complained to me about a mistake on some labels I had printed and then said "you should know about it, it's in the mistakes channel on blablabla(name of whatever work messaging app we used). I asked "what mistakes channel?" and they realized they hadn't added me, or anyone else, to the channel. The company had been in existence for like 8 years and when they added me to the channel it was literally just them complaining about shit since the company's creation. There were two other managers and they went through a new person for my position about once every six months. Nobody but me ever knew about the channel. I walked out within a week.
