During an initial screening, a patient explains that he is unemployed
because he keeps getting fired from new jobs after several months. The
therapist asks, “Why do you think those companies let you go?” The
patient’s reply is, “Those companies are all terrible. They don’t know how to
treat employees.” After asking the patient if he thought about his role in
getting fired, the patient says, “Why should I? I am not part of the problem.”

but may be harmed by it.
