Making the career switch from design to development. When I was first out of college, every other designer I talked to warned me not to start learning code because once an employer found out I could code, I would never be assigned design work again. Nobody ever encouraged me to try it out or see how I liked it, and it was years before I got there on my own and discovered it was actually a much better fit for me than design ever was.
