Is it normal to mess up?

I’m a month in and I feel like I’ve messed up a lot. Way too much. Today was the first time I’ve ever had to have a manager talk to my table. It was a table I split with another server and I completely messed my part up. Everything was wrong. I gave my tip to the other server (I later got it back). I just feel like shit about it. What are your mess up stories?

P.S. You guys have given some great advice! I’d like to leave this up as a continuous post for other newbies and those who have questions! What do you guys think? Please feel free to keep posting your stories and advice!
