Most times I got angry was when they didn't asked a question, they thought they knew how to do something, and did it wrong, and I had to clean it up.

Too many questions no, except when they don't use google before :)
Bad: "How I should do that (simple thing)?"
Good: "How I should do that? this way or that way?" -- means you did the research, you understood something and ask for more details.

Ofc every problem has more good solutions, but it matters how we do things HERE, now, in this team and in this project.

Recently I learned more about how team compositions work better, and what kinds of devs should be paired with juniors

I usually get this a lot, the bad ones i mean.

Most likely some juniors want you to code their whole task, LOL
