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.

Oh my...I work at one of the supermarkets that has it's name in yellow and the letters can be jumbled to spell Morons (if you take some away).
Whereas the work is boring, the managers speak down to you and customers think you are idiotic and not to be thanked, the standards kept are quite high (in my department anyway).
We have to clean everything, then clean the cleaning equipment, sign various forms after holidays to say we're healthy and keep a training card. We get briefed on not re-labelling out of date products (in fact, we have to waste items whose date label has fallen off), any food fallen on the floor is binned or wasted* and we get checked every so often to see if our uniforms are up to standards.
The other supermarkets are so upset that we don't keep the standars of dirtiness that they set a bomb off at the back of our store**
*Although I have seen the department manager pick things off the floor and put them on the shelves once packaged
**Not entirely true. Not sure who did it but they blew up the "O"
