> most of the employees are like that, but there are some that will screw you over. And just that minority is why we cannot have nice things.
I would argue that excessive worrying about edge cases like that is destructive. It shifts all energy and focus on the pathological and shapes policy and attitudes around the pathological case instead of the normal case. The perfect is the enemy of the good.
In large organizations, you will always have abusers. That just needs to be accepted. One should not assume an inquisitorial stance that seeks to extirpate every last evil from the organization. You will corrupt the norm that way. Pathological cases ought to be handled when they surface. A pervasive attitude of suspicion creates toxic relationships that harm the organization far more than the occasional abuser.
