Question for those who make dumb mistakes?

I have to ask, is there anyone here that often makes mistakes that are avoidable by common sense? I ask because I wanna see if i'm alone here. I tend to make errors that don't really require much thinking, such as, one time when i was working at Round Table Pizza as a pizza delivery person, I had to deliver pizzas to a conference room where there were about 30 people. my mistake was that I brought only 6 peppers and cheese packets. I didn't realize my mistake after I went back to the restaurant and the customer called us back and complained about the shortage of those side peppers and cheese and realized I didn't need counting lessons in order to have known how many of those packets I should have brought. I usually bring 6 of those things, and I got so used to bringing only 6 that I failed to realize how many more customers I had at that time! That's just one out of many errors I had done before. So I ask if there's anyone who is also like that, someone liable to stupid mistakes if you don't think extra harder. If you're not like that but you know someone who is, let me know as well.

  1. Okay you work at papa johns what part of this is a career? its not, seriously get over it, stop taking c**p personal and find a better job, What is the rewards for working at this place?  Or go to school you cant not live on a pizza guys salary.. More over your having a freaking baby on that you made a mistake, time to change jobs. Its a freaking mistake.


  2. I am impressed that you are concerned enough to ask about this. No, it's not the end of the world that you made this mistake, but it's indicative of a problem, namely that you did this work by rote instead of thinking about it.

    It's not uncommon for younger people to make mistakes caused by speed and enthusiasm.  It is uncommon for you to recognize this.  Excellent for you.  Just slow down a bit and think about each situation before you react.  You'll be fine!  :-)

      

  3. I think we ALL make silly mistakes such as the one you described, especially when it comes to routines in our jobs.

    YOU ARE NOT STUPID, AND YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!

    :)

  4. It happens to all of us. The only thing you can do is just pack extra cheese and peppers. Besides they make mistakes too we just can't call them on it. I do it too. It happens get over it.

  5. me totally. i once said on a test in fifth grade: 1121 + 1121 = 1121
