A young trader joined a financial company. He tried hard to shoe how good and useful he was, and he indeed was, at the rookie level.
One day he made a mistake, directly and undeniably attributable to him, and lost $200k due to that mistake.
Crushed and depressed, he came to his boss and said:
— Sir! I failed so badly. I think I'm not fit for this job. I want to leave the company.
But the boss went furious:
— How dare you, yes, how dare you ask me to let you go right after we've invested $200k in your professional training?!
