Why am I always forgetting stuff and making mistakes? I forget really obvious stuff like turning the dryer on, or I will turn something on or off and completely not remember. It also seems like I'm a complete sh!t magnet.

• Good to know, I guess. Would be nice if of the 1000 people that I work with, I wasn't the only one getting embarrassed with mistakes.

• That can be troublesome. I'm fortunate enough to work alone most of the time.

• Problem is, I'm a federal agent and I work in the field daily with about 100 of the same people.
  
  It's not like I'm a dip or anything. I do my job very well and I am one of the top agents in my seniority, but I really get sick of making these rediculous mistakes.
  
  It's like some really strange form of pressure anxiety where if I think about what I'm doing, I mess it up.

• I can do things on "autopilot" perfectly, but if I think about it, squish!

• You don't understand. It's like if my day was a timeline, certain sections just dissappear. Not like in that movie "The Butterfly Effect", but per my dryer example. The same thing happened with my router today. I was playing on xbox live (which requires my router, but my laptop wouldn't connect. I had turned the router off last night before I went to work, incidentally. So, I get up, turn "on" the router, but I was promptly kicked out of xbox live. My laptop wouldn't find the network, either. So, I go and turn the router back on, since I had accidentally just shut it off. and everything was fine. That type of stupid stuff happens to me all of the time.
  
  My job can be very stressful due to how easy it is to get fired, and the amount of pay I receive, but I remember doing dumb stuff like that since before I got this job two years ago.
  
  Earlier today, right before I left work, I made a really rookie mistake infront of about 25 of my coworkers. No one else is making them.
