So... can management acknowledge individual errors if they’re paid highly?

Yes.

But when someone is earning $8.50 an hour, and the manager overseeing them earns $100 an hour, I know who is responsible for the work.

Ok but you’re kind of just throwing numbers into the mix here to justify your position. What if the manager makes $12.50 an hour? Or $10?

The notion that people with low wages can’t be held accountable for errors EVER is... not reasonable

Well, who manages that guy? Even if literally everyone but the CEO barely earns a living wage, and you end up with results like those, I still know who is to blame.

Just go up the chain until you find someone who is paid enough to shoulder responsibility, even if it means you have to go all the way up to upper management.
