Sometimes this is negative but most of the time people admire you for admitting mistake and figuring out how to fix them.

They are afraid that even the slightest perceived fault would throw open the door to the endless amount of poor foresight, bad decisions or plain dumb behaviour that they so far have been able to keep hidden. For the honest folks it’s an extra obstacle but that’s corporate life sometimes. Be proud that you can be honest and admit fault. If the right people can see through the weasel then you just gained a peg or two. I find the people most likely to pass the buck are hiding a bigger skeleton in their closet.
