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.

IT managerAs an IT manager, the big dirty secret is you spend all day arguing with Telco's (not Tesco's, Tel Co's, Telecommunication Companies. Or more specifically, wankers). Its a giant metaphor for BT. The most incompetent, lazy, half-arsed, incompetent, idiotic wanking bunch of incompetent fuckers to walk this planet.
Dont think for one second they dont have a monopoly. Yes they fucking do and jesus christ do they know it. "ooh but we have openreach now, they're independant of us". Yes, they are, but why then, does the installation of a DSL line ordered through Verizon, require 2 jobs to be submitted to BT, whereas BT can submit it as one job direct to openreach. Dont get me fucking started.
Excuses from BT this month, and these are real.
1. Manhole covers had the wrong type of locks. (6 week delay so they can get the council to find the right fucking key).
2. "I havent got my coat and its raining." Seriously, I am now going to actually have you fired if i can.
3. "But that means we will have to dig up the road". Right. Thats what you do. I'm fairly fucking positive you can pretty much dig up the road anywhere and at any time. Whats the problem now?
3. "Its the MPSL. Its not us. Call your provider." YOU. ARE. MY. FUCKING. PROVIDER.
Jesus christ i'm angry now grrr
