I'll start.

That it doesn't pay to be nice, as you will be 'regretfully' fired.

ive learned that if you watch a show at end, it shows next week episode, and u see alan sugar pointing at the fired person

so when u watch the next again week, once the 3 possible people getting fired return to the boardroom....if you remember what way he points , you know who is leaving

Despite what my maths teacher told me you can apparently go beyond 100%.......though whether you can go beyond 100% without sounding like a tit is still questionable...

If you really want a career, go and get on sorting one out. Don’t go for 15 minutes of fame on a TV show, because you will be used and edited to provide ratings.
If you are fresh out of university or under 25, don’t constantly bang on about being the best at this or that, because it is highly likely that you aren’t.

Don't believe that you have to slog to get appointments made - they are all made for you or if you have to make your own, the first person you speak to will not only agree to see you but will buy off you.

You can ask a guy to pull down his pants in the workplace, in order to show you his penis, and it's not sexual harassment. You just wanted to make sure he was Jewish. Honest.

I've learned that the way to go through life is not to be a one trick pony, but be a field of ponies.

No Way! How can you not like Lucinda!

That wearing a beret gives you amazing powers of motivation and leadership.
