Hello ... been lurking around dev.to for ages and have finally taken the plunge and joined you crazy lot of world changers.
Been doing this programming thing for over 20 years but don't let that fool you. I am still learning so much every day.
Funny story to set the tone. On one of my very first jobs I was at a client site (a hospital) and had to be sitting in the server room for some reason. Anyway the guy supervising me got me going on the task he wanted me to do and then left me to it.
I was working away and then had to shift in my seat and my knee knocked something and then this really weird noise of a whole bunch of fans started spinning down. I had turned of the main power to the whole email servers.
YAY ME!
Needless to say that the guy was back in the server room pretty quick and kicked me out and got to work fixing it all.
I felt pretty ordinary but I lived to tell the tale.
We all stuff up from time to time and hopefully you will do it when someone kind is your supervisor.

If you are a supervisor ... be that someone kind.
