    I'll add one for the coders.

    "When you start your first game dev job, be prepared to embarass yourself on a daily basis with silly mistakes, derp moments and general ignorance."

    I wish some one told me that before I started. On the other hand, near constant mortification is a great motivator to keep studying in your spare time :)
