so what is the best and worst advice u received as a nurse and/or student

So far...

Best: Try to learn something new every day...never stop.

Good: Use your pockets! (I swear, you would be amazed at the amount of supplies that I can cram in them.)

Worst: Don't go into nursing. [Insert complaints] (This advice was given to me by a bunch of burned out ER nurses.--it was enough to scare me out of the field for 17 years.)

I think people can be nastier about food that pain meds
