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.

Turnabout...When I was in high school, I worked at a bakery in a large, upmarket supermarket. I used to get asked questions all the time about freshness, i.e. was this made today, do you get this in every day (some items were made by large commercial bakeries and shipped in), etc. People were always incredibly suspicious about it, and wouldn't believe me (or anyone) if they were told the products were fresh.
But the thing is, they always were. We had very strict policies about disposing of baked goods, and anything made the previous day and left unsold was given to the food bank.
Shocking, I know. The food was actually not misrepresented, spat in, wanked in, or too old. But just try and tell the customers that.
