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.

I'll only buy chicken from tescoMany moons ago, I used to work in a chicken processing factory in between uni terms. This was a fun and rewarding job and I had many a happy time there...
Every so often one of the customers (a*da, w*itrose, sa*nsburys etc) would send a health inspector round to see how the factory was run and how clean it was. They usually gave between 2 and 4 weeks notice. Whether or not they realised, this gave the managers ample time to clean up and ensure that certain people were "on holiday" or "off sick".
All apart from t*sco. Who sent round a 16 year old kid who "wanted a job". He systematically went round every section of the factory, claiming that each department in turn was not to his liking. After 2 weeks he "decided" that a career in hacking chickens to bits was not for him. So he left. Taking 2 weeks incriminating notes with him. T*sco cancelled their orders soon after (whether this is because he was in the fridges when we found one of the retards fucking a dead chicken (ready for packing) I don't know).
Oh, and don't belive the "organic" or "free range" stickers on poultry. Even though all the chicken was off one lorry/from one farm, a*da would label it as free range where s*insburys would label it as bargain bin stuff. Lovely.
And this is why I will only buy chicken from tesco.
