In this thread we give random CORRECT advice

Not sure how well this thread will do, but I thought it would be fun. I mean, most of us are educated, so maybe we can learn something from each other.

REJECTMENT is not a word.

and it's "a lot" not "alot".

Wash your hands for as long as it takes you to sing your ABCs twice.

Floss regularly.

Also, don't waste time on GC when you have two papers you should be writing. Too bad I can't take my own advice?

Always send a "thank you" note when you receive something, be it a gift or service.

"There", "their", and "they're" are 3 different words which are pronounced the same but have different meanings (homophones).

Even if service is not the best, you should always leave a tip. And remember- you are tipping the waiter/waitress and NOT the kitchen staff. Your waiter had nothing to do with your salmon being undercooked.

Don't put off shaving your legs in the winter just because nobody sees them anyway. You never know when you're going to break a foot.

All lessons from work...

Stay in touch with former colleagues, classmates, and friends (LinkedIn & Facebook are both great for this). You never know who will come through for you.

Do your best, every day, no matter the task. You don't know who may be watching.

Act like an expert and you'll be treated like an expert. Do your research behind the scenes and don't be cocky about it.

Over 75% of cats that develop heart disease are male.

Neutering a dog does not take away his masculinity. Or the masculinity of the human male who owns the dog.
