Best piece of advice you have heard lately

Once a co-worker suggested that I lift a sticker from a chair using Lysol (many a moon ago when you could get it).

My mind was too regimented. I thought you need a this for a that and the label has to fit the—and she yanked it out of my hand and brute force soaked the label with it ‘till it lifted away.

“Baby, you gotta MAKE things happen.”
 
^you can also remove stickers with grease or ordinary salad oil. Just make sure the underground is grease-proof.

In my office I have a note on the pinboard that says:
almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes. Including you.

Works perfectly for me :) *goes to unplug herself and take a break in the basement where it's nicely cool*
 
The universal technician advice: When in doubt use a bigger hammer. :biggrin:
Hammer time.

not exactly a piece of advice but it explains a lot and helped me understand:

men are a species that defies the laws of optic: the closer you look at them the smaller they appear. (Grete Weiser, German actress)
