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?

Like most humansI hate work. Even though I only work about five hours at a time I still hate it. When I tell people that I don't want to go to work they have one thing and one thing only to say: "Think of the money". This is silly. When I work I try to think of things that will prevent me killing the screaming children of various customers. If I were to think of the money I would probably try to take it. A supermarket is no place of employment for angry youths.
