As Professionals, we can not afford to make silly mistakes. Being in a practical world, silly mistakes make a huge difference.
For example, Being an architectural intern, though I am learning, I drafted wrong due to a silly mistake which says i drafted one line of wrong measurement. But it changed the whole design and I have to start again from a step before the step where i made that silly mistake just to make sure.
It wasted the hardwork and time of my principal architect and mine and we have to start all over again. It also shattered the expectations (This time my own expectations from myself as my architect understands I am at learning stage)
Hence, making silly mistakes dont just make a difference but also wasted the time. And time my friends is not just money but also hardwork in our field. You can loose the confidence of your clients in yourself too(Professional Image is important for work)
Advice (Or what i learnt): Always CROSS CHECK AND DOUBLE CHECK YOUR WORK before taking it to higher level or everything is to be started again from where you just did that silly mistake. DO IT BEFORE YOU REGRET IT.
Here I would love to hear from you people some experiences of this sort.
