“First, do no harm to your own career”.
Often widely misspelled “buttocratic” — believed to be product of a confusion with the medico’s Hippocratic Oath — buttocractic, with a “c”, in fact comes from the Greek concept of “buttocraxis” (βυτοκρακτική, notated by the Greek lower case omega (ω)), which is of course the ancient theological disposition of being elsewhere when blame is attributed, or “avoiding the apocalypse”.
