Committed a workplace gaffe? You will survive it (and you may even get promoted)

In the gaffe made by BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg (where she emailed her briefing notes to former prime minister Boris Johnson ahead of an interview with him—the interview was then canceled), she owned up to it.
