This is a question 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.

Mechanics,
I did my trade as a mechanic (and left the field for good as soon as I completed it).

One trick a mechanic I knew used to do was to quite often skip most the replacement parts required in a "Tune up" and he would then bend the accelerator pedal upwards by about 10mm.

It is amazing how much more responsive a car feels to the unsuspecting old lady/man afterwards.
