The Dirty Secrets of Your TradeSo, 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.

Telephone RecordersStalked the boards for long enough - time to rid my guilt.
When you call a company, and during their recorded message state "this call may be recorded for training purposes" it is being recorded. Not for training mind you. Just for nosey bosses who don't like members of staff who can't ask the right things or do their jobs properly.
The recording technology is primarily used for financial dealers so that they can ensure they put the tickets through at the right prices and rates, and the firm they work for won't get into trouble or go bust. Works fine, except for if you work for a national paper who offer tips on shares then get busted because you're insider dealing (I still have a copy of the conversations that got 2 certain journalists that worked for a 'reflective' newspaper ... they make me smile every so often).
