Sponsors should give experience, not advice. If there is no experience, direct me to someone who had my same experience; what did they do and what happened as a result? Unsolicited advice is good, but.....I'd rather know what worked or what works!
My sponsor gave me advice for a job they had no experience with. I did not take their advice, luckily! I had some experience with this, so it worked out much better. My Higher Power gave me free will and a sober mind, so I believe I can make sober decisions, too.
