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.

what i have learned in cronological order
1. industrial shrink wrapping machines will emit enough plastic fumes to send you to another dimension

2. never, ever, even if you are dying of starvation eat at supermarket cafe

3.the people on supermarket fish/meat/baker counters aren't on drugs, they are just retarded

4.the official line in shops for getting rid of forged/ foreign money is to "give it to someone who looks like they wont complain"

5.top tip: anyone who calls you up asking you to do a survey wont go away unless you tell them it is a business number

6.painter decorators dont give a shit.

7.the people who work on your local tip only do so in order to steal the thousands of pounds worth of copper piping that gets dumped. the rest of the time they sit around drinking tea and smoking, do they care whether or not you recycle? do they bollocks.

8.No legitimate tradespersons will EVER ask for cash up front. those people who go on watchdog are cretins eg:"i thought it was standard practice to only use cash and have a mobile number for a office"

9.the only difference between crime and legitimate business practice is whether or not you get caught.
