When a person is held responsible for something by their boss that logic and/or the facts suggest is due to a number of other circumstances. While it can be argued very narrowly that the employee could have behaved differently, it is the case that there are too many aforementioned factual or logical inconsistencies to cause the ire of the boss upon the employee. An important element is that this judgement and subsequent criticism is after a considerable amount of time where the employee has offered loyalty in the face of difficult positions taken by or assignments given by one's boss.
The vice president suffered from the Pence Effect when he was blamed by his boss for not single handedly overturning the election.
That guy toiled loyally for years attempting to implement his bosses ideas even though they were I'll advised. When they didn't work out he was blamed. Sure, maybe someone else could have done it, but to draw the conclusion that it's his fault is a stretch at best. He suffered from the Pence Effect.

Get the morgz effect mug.The strange experience of finding your relatively uncommon name in the Urban Dictionary with a very specific definition that seems to relate to your life. A modern-day horoscope of sorts, finding your name on Urban Dictionary and thinking "haha yeah that's me," then considering if the entry could have actually been made for you. A form of cognitive bias in the digital age... or is it?
Alano: Hey, look at this entry in the Urban Dictionary. I wonder if it's actually about me!
Friend: No way, there are probably tons of other Alanos. You're just getting hit by The Urban Name Effect.
Alano: I can't believe my name's also used as a euphemism for Alcoholics Anonymous, damn it.
