This is a question My job: Expectation vs Reality

When I worked as a window cleaner, everybody - and I mean everybody - I knew asked me the "how's yer father" question. The truth was that I was always knackered and freezing, and the only nudity I saw was some fat bloke's arse. Tell us how your work differs from the expectation.

Thanks to Rotating Wobbly Hat for the idea

I work for a trading company. We buy and sell food
in quantities of up to about 75,000 tons at a time.

"ooh, really? I bet you're never short of sugar, rice etc, etc"

I think the last time I actually physically touched any of the goods we trade was 7 years ago.
