You know I never had really terrible incidences, only because I took it one day at a time, was Very in tune to learning, only did something if I was sure about it.
If you're just learning don't be afraid to ask questions, sh*t I never stop asking questions! The only way to learn from someone else in full (because I'm sure you can watch, but there is ALWAYS a reason for what you do, in the kitchen) is to ask Questions!!

Of course there have been those times. For example on my first day at this one corporate restaurant I was being trained how to cut salad, and believe you me cutting romaine is easy. So I basically told my trainer to leave me be. I filled a deep plastic hotel pan full of cut lettuce, and on my way to the cooler I dropped the whole thing!!
You know what, sh*t happens and everyone knows that. Just gotta take it one day at a time and don't rush! Be sensible.
