Baggage handler. If you check a skateboard by just slapping a sticker on it it will get ridden.

A lot of people think military is synonymous with discipline and top-tier job training. I’ve seen things that would make a McDonald’s worker think that their job is pretty high-class.

This is gonna get buried but here goes. Bouncers don’t give a f*** about you, your problems, or anything other than not having the rules/law broken. If you are cool to us, we will be cool to you. Come at us with an attitude, or hostility, and we will respond in kind. We aren’t paid to be nice.

Sewer inspector. I can tell exactly who/ what house is dumping oil and grease down their drains. It’s usually the churches and businesses that get nastygrams and fines but we need to shame the house people too.

Doctor here. I’ll see a patient Monday morning in the hospital, work all night and then Tuesday morning in the hospital, and I won’t have slept in the 24 hours in between. And this is totally normal and accepted practice in medicine.

I work in video games. Our job is to make our game as addictive as possible so that we can make the most money out of micro-transactions. (Think mobile phone games) A lot of our game design is by marketing telling us what people will most likely buy in the game by watching data. Sure, it starts free-to-play, but to keep you playing and paying we mine data to make it more “sticky.” After a while I felt like I was working for a drug dealer and quit recommending our games to people I knew. Sure, people have fun playing the games we make, but I don’t want to hear later about how much money you or your kids wasted on it.

I own a bar, we get rich while a lot of people drown their sorrows in alcohol (Serious, that really depresses me somehow)

Barely anyone in the state of Georgia gets an autopsy. If you wanted to [end] someone over the age of 40, all you would really need to do is make sure that they had some kind of previous medical history and the body was found outside of a metropolitan area. The coroners here are only required to have a high school diploma. Some states are worse, most better.

After working in the travel industry I can tell you that hotel room rates are often not fixed prices. If guests come to the front desk and ask the price we generally start at the high end. Most people accept this as fact and pay up. However, if a customer is hesitent or threatens to walk out we can sometimes drop the price to keep them there. Often there is a bottom line price set by the owners- we can’t go any lower than that or we lose money.

Medical lab scientist The pregnancy test that we run for your doctor that costs ridiculous amounts of money are the same tests you can buy at the grocery store.

I worked for Whole Foods, that stuff in the prepared foods section you pay top dollar for isn’t even organic. It’s not even from the store. We’d go buy ingredients from Costco. Whole Foods tries to justify you paying so much money for your meals because it’s all organic and fresh ingredients but it’s a lie. Also the hot bar is just reheated leftovers from the day before.

In mental health, often the appearance of progress is more important than progress itself Edit: I’m *not* saying counseling or therapy don’t work at all, just saying there is sometimes pressure to inflate positives to have clients stick around.

Home construction. It is so bad. Amazing what people will pay a half mil for. Total rubbish. You won’t believe the number of foundation failures or how many roof trusses have termites pre-installed and for gods sake never look under the carpet.

I used to work for a major p****** delivery service unloading semi trailers. The flat screen TV you ordered for christmas was under a gun safe and a lift kit for a truck.
