every comeback I got I fixed, then kept a similar piece on my box as a reminder to not make the same mistake. even kept some on my keys to never forge

Also what caused the mistake? Usually it’s caused by distraction. You can attend to other things at proper stopping points not just willy nilly

If you’re working for a place that you can’t admit you’ve made a mistake (or ask for help when you don’t know something) RUN! A lot of learning is

You need to have mistakes to learn. Approach mistakes with maturity and realize mistakes will happen. The most important part is to learn from mistake

Start marking bolts after tightening. Makes it easy to double check. 😁

Good advise, unfortunately too many bosses handle this poorly, as a tech you need to stay strong and continue to build confidence in your work

Luckily mine never came fully off or made it to the customer. Losing a bit of time is better then an accident.
