My first lesson?
if you remember that at work the two most important phrases you can say to yourself when confronted with idle gossip or bad work-related situations of your co-workers are:
Its none of my business.
and
I do not care.
I am going to start being a self-help business consultant
...
Good advice and all, but definitely won't get you very high on the corporate ladder or through the glass ceiling. So I wonder who the demographic for your services would be? But really, it's none of my business and I guess I don't care all that much.

Best work advice my mailman ever gave me:
"The more you learn, the more people will ask you to do. The trick is to learn nothing. Learn nothing, just be competent, and you'll be fine."
My mailman is very smart. He also turned me onto the Black Eyes.
