What would you be most capable of giving good advice on?

We all have certain things we know more about because of already having done them or having a great amount of knowledge on a subject. What would you feel you have a good amount of advice to share on? Marriage, divorce, children, a certain job, transportation, music, art, etc...

i rarely give advice breezey, i guess it's the training as a Life Line tellephone councilor, you don't advice people what they should do, even if it's very obvious, you lead them to see the solutions themselves.
yet on the other hand ,i don't like it when people do that to me, i think a straight ..bla bla ... saves a lot of time.

Got ya! lol
So you'd be able to give someone advice on what to say or do for training and helping people as a telephone counselor? You have done it and have a knowledge of what it entails, right? [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
That's really interesting and I just learned a little about how it is supposed to work.

breazey i did the course with life line,(a counseling and referal organisation). and worked as volunteer telephone councilor with them for a couple of years.there was ongoing training eg, gambling addiction,alcohol,domestic violence,mental illness,sexual abuse...some people would ring out of sheer lonelyness, especially around christmas, mothersday etc...there was always support at hand, and for overnight shifts we had some one to call on stand by if anything became to difficult or we needed advice .there were also crank calls .i think the most important thing i got out of that was, if i had any judgemental tendencies left, this experience knocked them out completely !!

It sounds like you learned a lot about people and phone counseling.
I am learning just from what you are telling me about it all.
