Some mistakes really don’t matter, don’t affect anything too badly. They can be put down to an error of judgment, laughed at at a later date, and the world goes on regardless.
However, other mistakes do matter, affect things really rather badly. They can still be put down to an error of judgment, but it”ll take a while to look back and laugh at them. And although the world will carry on, that mistake can be remembered forever.
This is especially true if a mistake is videoed and regarded as entertaining enough to become a viral video hit. Such as this one showing a fork lift driver making a very big error of judgment and almost paying for it with his life.
In the end, he walked away virtually unscathed, but the stacking system of the warehouse was ruined and over $170,000 worth of vodka and cognac was damaged or destroyed in the process. An epic fail if ever I saw one.
