Advice from Old People
Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

Keep your flowing locks!
My shortest ever job interview was when I applied for a part-time job at a well-known supermarket.
They said: "Your hair's too long. Are you prepared to cut it for the job?"
I said: "Um...I'd prefer not to."
And I didn't get the job. But look where I am today...um...not working in waitrose...
EDIT: what I should have said was, some people have the face for a crew-cut, some people have a face which better suits a full head of hair.
(I have a face which best suits a paper bag)
