1) The ...Just some other explanations of that מדרש:<br />1) The חזון איש (אמונה ובטחון ב:ו) writes that there is a חיוב of השתדלות because we can’t rely on a miracle. The problem with what יוסף did was that his act of השתדלות was in fact not an act of השתדלות, but an act of desperation. Logically speaking, asking the Egyptian to save him was not going to work. השתדלות means doing something that is likely to be effective. Doing desperate השתדלות is not השתדלות, it is אסור. <br />2) Rav Dessler (מכתב מאליהו ח״ד עמ׳ 27-29) explains that a person has to know and be conscious of a basic principle of בטחון, that any exertion or effort that is not motivated by spiritual aspirations - an exertion or effort that is motivated by materialistic aspirations - clashes with אמונה. There is a need for a person to do השתדלות, although this balance is very tricky. יוסף was not punished with 2 extra years in prison because he asked the butler to help him, but as רש״י says, ״מפני שתלה בו יוסף בטחונו לזכרו״, he “pegged his hopes” on him. יוסף forgot that only the רצון ה׳ directs the world and the pathways of a person. <br />3) One time Reb Chaim Soloveitchik asked Rav Shimon Shkop what would have happened had יוסף only said זכרתני and not also הזכרתני? Would יוסף have been punished? The מדרש makes it seem as though יוסף was punished with 2 years in jail by saying these 2 words. Would he have been punished at all had he only said זכרתני? Rav Shimon answered, had יוסף only said זכרתני, he would have been punished with 1 year in jail. Reb Chaim responded, that had יוסף only said זכרתני, he would not have been punished at all because he had a חיוב to do some השתדלות. Only because he said both זכרתני and הזכרתני was he punished. The fact that he also said הזכרתני shows that when יוסף said זכרתני, it wasn’t that he was doing השתדלות. Once he told the שר המשקים to remember him a 2nd time, we see that יוסף thought that asking the שר המשקים to remember him was going to be what would save him. This was his חטא, He thought that telling the שר המשקים to remember him was going to save him, not הקב״ה.
