Is it weird to say that I think I do not have an embarrassing story? I have made many mistakes, big and small, and still do. But I don't think any of them are embarrassing. Sure there were mistakes which, in hindsight, were stupid. But I never set out like "hold my beer, and watch this".

I think most people tend to make their biggest mistakes a few years into their career, where they have enough knowledge to break things but not enough wisdom to know how to avoid breaking things. If you've gotten past that hump, I'd say you're probably safe! (Hopefully!)
