wish they would have told me

So you saw the colours which made you think one thing but the different colours didn't make you wonder what was really going on there?
Yeah, right.

Incumbent upon you to find out before playing around with wiring.

I don't mean that unkindly but what you did could have caused damage and possibly put others at risk.

A positive outcome is that you have, inadvertently or otherwise, highlighted the issue.
No doubt you will have learned from it. Perhaps others can too.

I certainly have never again thanks guys ...

You were lucky. More than once I have been called to a pile of smoking equipment where this has happened, either phase / neutral reversal or loss of neutral which can be as serious. Much of it was written off, chucked in the skip and claimed for on insurance. On one occasion I edited the word 'numpty' out of my report at the last minute!
