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.

I work for a bowling alley...You wouldn't believe the shit we get up to.
Our tracking computer is broken so we're forced to base the length of games on the number of shots the players have had. Once they reach the limit (give or take a few for strikes at the end) the lane is turned off. How bloody unreasonable is that?!
If a customer loses money to a vending machine, we open it up and give them the product they wanted.
If they lose it to an arcade machine, we refund them the amount they put in.
If they lose it to a pool table, we open 'er up and take the balls out for them.
5-star service? I think not!
If a customer's lane breaks down repeatedly, we move them to another one if we can and give them vouchers for a free game another time. I wonder why the earth doesn't just open up and swallow us all up!
I could continue, but you'd just be too shocked to carry on. *cries into pillow*
