> Firstly, if an employee of a company fucks up at work, the company is responsible, not the employee.
That’s utterly wrong.
The employee is always a potential defendant.
Legal doctrines such as respondeat superior and principal/agent and the like extend the liability to the employer.
Nobody bothers to sue the employee as they’re generally broke. The goal is to sue the employer.
But, there is no ‘immunity’ that arises from being an employee.
