What NOT To DO in S&T and Banking

I think one of the best ways to learn is through mistakes. As the internship season is about to start, I was wondering if any of you could share some of the mistakes you have made in your Sales and Trading or banking internships and how you resolved those mistakes.  Also would like to hear if there are any unspoken taboos in this industry.

Thanks ahead of time!
