This is the same CYA attitude that I have been assuming the last 2 years because it's such a frequent occurrence.
The only issue is that I still get blamed. I don't know how many times I've repeated this scenario:
1. I highlight gap / issue in code.
2. Team says, "Need to ship; we'll accept the risk"
3. During go-live, fecal matter hits fan because of aforementioned gap in code.
4. Everyone acts surprised.
5. I point out that I mentioned it 2 months ago.
6. Everyone makes excuses / claims they don't remember it that way / moves on to burn down another project.
7. I'm left to clean up a mess / have taken a hit to my reputation.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong...
