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?

important: sleeping pills cause drowsinessI work in a pharmacy, where (of course) all the drugs must be labelled to the utmost degree of preciseness. One day, unpacking boxes of sleeping pills, i noticed that on the back of the boxes was printed:
'WARNING: This product may cause drowsiness. If affected do not drive or operate heavy machinery.'
