Fix it quietly. Bosses don't remember the problems you solved—they remember the problems you created. Why volunteer for negative attention?

This is honestly a character test. What kind of person do you want to be?

Coming clean always. Trust is everything in a workplace and AI catching it before you report it yourself looks even worse.

Depends on the mistake honestly. Minor typo? Fix it. Major financial error? You gotta say something.

Quietly fixing it is just being smart about self-preservation. Not every mistake needs an audience.

Telling immediately shows integrity. Your boss will respect the honesty way more than discovering it later.
