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.

Another post about the well, post1. Santa messages are now sent to Northern Ireland to be processed. Makes for an interesting explanation for those children who parents of a Catholic and Protestant persuasion who live there..
2. Please, please, please keep using regular stamps on large letters as it makes my job so much easier: all I do with them is throw them into the surcharge tray and leave them for someone else to deal with them.
3. Please don't post your porn by more secure means than a tatty envelope as it brightens up our shift when they come out of their piss-poor packaging.
4. Why post your passport by a secure method like special delivery when a single first class stamp on the envelope containing it is so much more excitiing! Especially at Christmas when all the casual workers are there!
5. Toilet breaks are a great way to have a quick 10-15 min session on your PSP, DS etc.
6. There's a team of people called the 'clean up crew' who process all the work not finished when the machines stop in the afternoon. Do you:
A. Work extra hard to minimise their work
or
B. Take the chance to try and finish that tricky bit of the game when the manager leaves early on their break?
Take a guess which one I choose?
