Employment advice
Got this one from an old Boss -
Be nice to people 'on your way up' - you never know who you gonna meet on 'the way down'.
Bit negative if you ask me......
My fave (and I have no idea where i heard it)
"Do unto others, before they do unto you"

I think Bill and Ted said it best:
"Be most excellent to each other, and party on!"
Coupled with Wayne Gretsky:
"Statistically speaking, 100% of the shots you don't take, won't go in"

My dad once gave me his golden nugget on life
'Don't be scared to make a decision'
I basically spent the first few years of my career putting my **** on the block, I have been right and wrong many times, but I got noticed for having the bottle. I put this down as the reason my career has been so successful to date...........
I can now afford to move back to Scotland take a 66% wage cut, working 3 days a week, allowing me to spend loads of time with my wife and new family, all pretty much based on the above statement

You may, if you must, put your **** on the block, but whatever you do, don't put it in the photocopier!! :-D
