I messed up at work today and i feel terrible about it
i told my boss i was really sorry and that o felt awful
she is annoyed but i think she knows it was a genuine mistake
i just cant shake the feeling that im not good enough to do the job role or that basically im just to stupid to work there
i really enjoy my job but the worry really exaggerates my anxiety
i hate feeling like a failure

there is not one person that has never messed up at work. It’s part of being human and you need to give yourself a break. Even bosses mess up, managers, doctors, scientists, etc.no one is perfect.
making a mistake does not equal being a failure. there’s something that’s even more important than making a mistake. And that is learning from the mistakes and moving forward.Life is all about learning it’s not about being perfect because that will never happen to anyone. give yourself more credit. take care

Hey, don't feel that way! Everyone has messed up at work, and if they haven't, they will.
I remember when I was working in a hotel in the summer and I lost a guest because the call went dead when I was finalizing the reservation and I didn't write down the number he had given me at the beginning of the call.
I felt terrible at the time, but I learned a lesson that day.
We all make mistakes and that's the only way we learn.
