when i've raised the problem, described the impact and explained what it would take to solve it, there's really no amount of mental gymnastics which could end up with it being my fault, especially if there's a paper trail. if a manager started doing stuff like calling me names over it, i'd go to their boss and make a formal complaint.

at least that's what i hope i'd do. it's never gone that far for me and in practice i'm only ~80% sure that i wouldn't just tell them to choke on a dick and get myself fired at that point. to be honest if you have a boss like that you should be spending all of your time and effort on finding a new job rather than trying to solve problems at your current one anyway.
