This is a question The Dirty Secrets of Your Trade

So, Television is a hot bed of lies, deceit and made up competitions. We can't say that we are that surprised... every job is full of this stuff. It's not like the newspapers currently kicking TV whilst it is down are all that innocent.

We'd like you to even things out a bit. Spill the beans on your own trade. Tell us the dirty secrets that the public need to know.

Everyone makes shit up
Years ago, working at BT Telemarketing, in sales support. We used to have to deal with customers who couldnt get an ISDN line that they had been mis-sold previously by the semi-trained chimps in sales. But since we knew nothing about phone routing, made-up elements of phone terminology like "sump" or "flux capacitor" were liberally sprinkled into the conversation. Loved the day when I told someone about their "flux capacitor" being the wrong sort, then they asked me what "Back to the Future" had to do with ISDN.
Nothing, sorry mate.
