Do you know the name of this psychological phenomenon? I’ve seen this pattern play out a few times, and I have to believe there is some formal terminology for it. 

Imagine two friends (or coworkers or husband and wife):  one person volunteers to do an undesirable task. Once complete, if the task is done imperfectly (potentially due to parameters beyond control of the first person), the second person is critical and claims this wouldn’t have happened had he/she been in charge. 

Example:  A couple decide to install new wood floors, which requires finding contractors, negotiating, scheduling, etc.  The wife volunteers, and as the project gets close to finishing, there is an unexpected supply shortage, and the project will be delayed a week while they await new supplies. The husband gets upset because now their house looks a mess when visiting family is in town, and blames his wife for mismanaging the project, and claims this wouldn’t have happened if he were managing the project. 

This sort of behavior seems to reflect some narcissism and a lack of empathy, but I’m curious about terminology for this “Monday morning quarterbacking” time behavior. 

Thanks.
I think this phenomenon can be explained by the hindsight bias :


  Hindsight bias, also known as the knew-it-all-along effect or creeping
  determinism, is the inclination, after an event has occurred, to see
  the event as having been predictable, despite there having been little
  or no objective basis for predicting it. ... Hindsight bias may cause
  memory distortion, where the recollection and reconstruction of
  content can lead to false theoretical outcomes.


.


  A basic example of the hindsight bias is when, after viewing the
  outcome of a potentially unforeseeable event, a person believes he or
  she "knew it all along". Such examples are present in the writings of
  historians describing outcomes of battles, physicians recalling
  clinical trials, and in judicial systems trying to attribute
  responsibility and predictability of accidents.


.


  Hindsight bias has similarities to other memory distortions, such as
  misinformation effect and false autobiographical memory.
  Misinformation effect occurs after an event is witnessed; new
  information received after the fact influences how the person
  remembers the event, and can be called post-event misinformation.


.


  There is no solution to eliminate hindsight bias in its totality, but
  only ways to reduce it. Some of which include considering
  alternative explanations or opening one's mind to different
  perspectives. In terms of auditory communication, the speaker would
  try to provide more clarity in his or her delivery and the listener
  may seek greater clarification
