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.

When checking the logs for bad stuff.......................
We sometimes read your email!!!!!!!!!!
Aw, its bindun :(
My favourite occassion for doing this has to be a happening with the first line tech support guy (50 years old +), fat, lazy and most of all fekkin useless. He's been in IT for who knows how long and yet last week I had to write him a step by step guide to installing Windows XP and putting the computer into a Domain etc etc.
One day he starts flapping and panicking so we ask whats wrong "Computers crashed, dunno whats wrong' he mutters and starts flapping even more. System continues to lock up on reboot and we notice network traffic going mad from his IP......hmmmmmm............investigation, clickety click click.
Doing what 2nd Line do best, we start to troubleshoot and find out what he was doing and why this 'infestation' is trying to communicate with the rest of the network.
Then the word 'email' is muttered under his breath so we go looking at the logs. The stoopid fekker had only released an email with the subject line of 'Naked Pics of Britney Spears', complete with an executable attachment from the spam trap to his email address and double clicked the attachment.
Length? Probably too long for this QOTW and two days to rebuild his PC from scratch :)
