Boss's Daughter Steals Lunch, Gets Sent To Hospital, Boss Tries Blaming Employee

So here's the thing. Any reasonable person with a life-threatening peanut allergy is probably cautious enough to not be in the business of stealing stranger's lunches. It's an irresponsible, presumptive and entitled thing to do. But one interesting feature of nepotism is that the boss's kid often has a hard time seeing things that way. And it seems like this boss's kid in particular had a persistent habit of stealing people's lunches.

This employee wasn't even trying to trick their coworker. They just brought their own food. And the boss's daughter, who evidently believed that what's everyone else's is hers, didn't think that a stranger's peanut sauce might contain peanuts. It's just a snowball of errors that starts with one person's inability to acknowledge personal property, despite the very real and ever-present danger of their life threatening food allergy.

But it's not like this person's boss is going to thank her for clarifying things. His daughter might have put herself in the hospital, but at the same time, it doesn't benefit him to internalize any kind of personal responsibility on the part of him or his kin, so he won't. It's as if his body chemistry somehow rejects blame. If only there was a word for such a phenomenon.
