Just spent 3 hours fixing a detail I messed up in 10 seconds

Was working on a set of shop drawings for a custom cabinet job in Nashville last week and accidentally mirrored a door panel instead of duplicating it. Didnt catch it until the fabricator called asking why the grain ran opposite on one piece. Anyone else have a tiny mistake blow up into a full afternoon of rework?

Funny how one tiny brain fart can eat up hours, seems like life's full of those domino effects.

Man, my brain farts could power a small city at this point. Last month I spent an hour re-sanding a table because I grabbed the wrong grit sandpaper and didn't notice until I'd already stained the whole thing.
