I think there should be a new ethos - 'He who fks up, pays to fix it'.

I'm self-employed; if I cock something up I lose money. So whichever twerp cocked this up should forfeit 20% of his salary. It might sharpen him/her up for next time and serve as a lesson to the rest. And if they don't like it, they can resign and start their own businesses...

I'm not saying the situation or the resultant outcome is correct, but your statement is bks.

On what grounds? It may not be enforceable in real life because they'd all go on strike, but the sentiment is correct. Call it an incentive if you like. How would you feel if your life's work went to the wall because someone went home a bit early? Either take responsibility for something or don't do it - and that is the problem.
