This Issue's Dilemma:

How to handle a sneaky boss?

While I like my job, my problem is not a co-worker; it’s my boss. She is cheerful and chummy, but when something fails, she blames someone on our development team. I’m usually the person she blames. She assigns me projects without the guidance or resources to be successful. When the security fails, it becomes "my fault."

How do I deal with her? Should I talk to her or go to HR?
