1. In my first month(?) of working at Kitfox, I sent a GIANT email to community members and... forgot to bcc the emails. And some people hit "Reply All" to scold me.
(I cried for a week straight because I thought I'd be fired
)

There's probably many more I've forgotten and/or buried into oblivion, but I just wanted to make it clear no one, especially based on social media presence, is perfect at their work. Put no one on a pedestal. It's ok to heck up a bit. It's good to try. We learn from it.
