[QUOTE=GeneralSpecific;23534891]Bread is delivered to our stores five days a week, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Each day has a differently colored twist tie.
They go:

As you can see, the colors are arranged alphabetically! Keep this in mind when buying bread.[/QUOTE]

No one thinks they're out to get you. They're out to get your money.

That's a useful tip. Does that apply everywhere though?
I used to work for a cable company who came into your home to repair/install what you needed. If you're an asshole, we'd tell you we can't do shit and you'll have to call the head office to sort it out and call in a new guy. If you ask for our contact details, we'd give you a fake number and drive off.
We had other homes to go to where they probably won't be bitchy and we'd get paid, instead of hanging around your crappy attitude for hours for that single job missing out on the cash of the other appointments after you.
If you weren't an asshole, we'd take GREAT care not you damage your home while bringing in the ladders, drilling holes etc... We'd even clean up after our mess.
I work in a supermarket (I'm not going to say which one) and I work on the grocery section on certain days. Let me tell you, avoid the unpacked fruit at all costs. When the packed fruit goes out of date we have to tear open the packets and put all the fruit into a crate which is put out to sell usually it gets sold before it goes mouldy.
Great job of the OP to start with some fakery, pretty much inspires us.
Don't eat at McDonalds. Trust me.
It's really hard to teach elementary school science.
Only because children hate school.

Did you work at a mental hospital? That would explain it.
I had a friend and mentor that worked in Burger King in his earlier days
Apparently they would bleach old lettuce that had brown splotches to make it appear fresh :ohdear:
good thing burger king is way too overpriced in my country (i can go to an arabic stand and buy 3 hamburgers at the cost of one whopper ,and in my openion they taste better . Also you can see them making your food so they wont spit in it or something)
[QUOTE=Bronsbey;23534233]At Red Rooster in Australia (I don't know if it's outside ze motherland) we've fried insects in the cooking oil, then cooked food. Apparently someone jizzed in a burger, it's not confirmed, but I know the kid and it's exactly what he would do. I hope god he didn't.[/QUOTE]
Please don't tell me that the Red Rooster you work at is in the Maitland/Newcastle area in New South Wales...
Furthermore, and I know some of you (if not all) know this already, but when you have people come around to your house (to install a satellite dish for example) they deliberately want to take as long as possible to do whatever they want to do as they're paid a wage (per hour) so by taking longer they're getting more money off of you. However this should already be common knowledge.
The majority of high street electronics retailers are allowed to go 20-30% lower than the price displayed when making a sale. Usually involves buying "attachments", such as ink for printers etc but is a good way to save money if you're any good at bartering.
fast food restaurants often make your food ın a disgusting way?
I thought we already knew that shit
If you ever go on a dry ski slope, go at a time in the summer when it's raining, especially in the weeks before the school holidays.

Don't buy cheap PSU's if you're upgrading your computer. You'll fry the whole thing.

you will probably not fry the whole thing but you will probably have the PSU killed in less than a week
I used to work at Coles (in Australia), never trust supermarket delis. We're encouraged to minimize loss, so if we drop some meat, etc. on the floor, we are told to put it straight back into the display cabinet as long as no one saw.
Read through application forms fully before even touching them with a pen.

Actually pretty much any restaurant does this. It's like apples turning brown. It is still fresh food most of the time. It isn't bleach either it is a powdered mix that gets rid of the brown blotches, which isn't harmful. It is just to keep the food looking good. Ask any restaurant manager and they will most likely do this.

Oh shit, I shop at Coles in Australia.
And I just ate some meat 2 nights ago...
But I have no job, so I can't tell any interesting facts about work.
But I can tell good helpful advice though...
When you ask for us to check if something's in stock, we're probably not checking when we go in the warehouse because if it's not on the shelf we probably don't have it.
A company I worked for here in Finland was selling machinery to a Russian company, but they refused to buy anything that had something to do with the Chinese, so we just tore off the Chinese stamps (it was designed and assembled in Finland but the parts were manufactured in China) and told them it was Polish
Ah globalization
When you're golfing twilight at a public golf course then taken note of the situation. When does the starter leave? Where are some entrances that don't pass by the club house? Does the manager drive around checking your tickets every 30 minutes? It's highly probable you can sneak on most of the time.
Also, don't drink from the water jugs if they have them. Just bring two very large water bottles and avoid the jugs!
