Useless adviceAs a new parent, people seem to think it's OK to pass on any and every old wives tale possible. "Don't hug him too much". What? Quite what possesses people to pass on baseless, idiotic, useless advice I don't know.
That said, I quite often give car drivers directions and then, after they've moved off, realise that I've sent them down a bike-only route, so I can give as good as I get.
What useless advice have you been given (or handed out) recently?

Careers AdviceAt school the only careers advice I ever received was the suggestion that I could be an academic in a university.
Happily I was smart enough to realise that the people who were telling me I couldn't get a proper job were people who couldn't get a proper job.
