I've had actual experience of this sort in an established, relatively large company with a dedicated CFO. Worse and worse every month. A true mistake is acknowledged, not repeated, and addressed: the opposite of what a failing company in denial does.

Interesting; and that's a shame. I guess I just mean to say that a mistake like that could legitimately be a mistake. I'd be horrified if our employees thought we were going bankrupt because our payroll system had a bug in it!
