Depends on the situation Lily. If I ask for it and I respect the person I'm asking it from then it becomes a 'factor'. All factors get weighed up from there and a 'decision' is reached. A 'decision' could well be wrong but at the end of the day you have to make your own. Even if it goes against advice from people you respect. I've done this before and sometimes I'm right, sometimes I should have followed the advice. For example, my Troop Commander told me I'd never get a decent job in IT when I left the Army as an electronics technician hiding in IT. I did respect him and he believed it to be true.

If it is given without being asked for, from a person I respect, then it has a high chance of being followed. From a person I don't respect then it has SFA chance of being followed (unless I consider it to be good advice in which case I'll try my best to make sure they don't know I followed it ). If it comes from a stranger then it depends on the advice - whether I think it's good or not etc.

Does that make sense?

none what so ever!

i suggest you take some time out, go on holiday for 3 weeks then come back and try to find a way to avoid getting you arse handed to you on a plate everytime we are on the same track.

Nobody knows everything, but everybody knows something!

That's why I listen to advice from everybody. Of course I have to weigh up the advice for myself, but then nobody else is going to be able to provide me with good judgement unless I develop that for myself
