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.

Never trust someone in a white coatMany many moons ago I worked in a few analytical chemistry labs doing everything from microbiology to toxic metal analysis. You'd think this would all be exact and such.... wrong!
I had a manager who, when presented with results for food safety exams he didn't like, would declare, "That must be wrong" and made them up. Another who's idea of testing bread (this is comersial bread for food safety and such) used to certify it as micobiologically clean by.... squeezing it. But my favorite was the lab which did a series of tests and got the samples mixed up. Result? A certain junior minister declaring all eggs have salmonella.
Not so much wrong as... well... wrong.
