My industry -- corporate legal defense -- is incredibly boring and very much by the book when it comes to shortcuts, skimping, and dirty little secrets. At least it's been that way at the three "big law" firms I've worked.

Housecleaners in a hurry sometimes sweep kitchen floor, make sinks look shiny, and pour Pine Sol or the like in the drains and toilets. I did it a few times, never failed, client would come home, take a whiff, look at the sink, and thank you for doing such a great job!

The wind energy business has a H-U-G-E carbon footprint! They don't mine the ore using renewable energy. They don't process or smelt the ore using renewable energy. They don't transport the materials to the construction site using renewable energy. The don't use any renewable energy to erect, repair or maintain the wind farms. Plus, for every ton of portland cement used in the concrete foundations of the turbine towers and transmission line towers, a ton of CO2 is produced. And then the electricity is released into a non-green grid. There's not a damned thing renewable about industrialized wind energy.

very interesting!!! fuckers!

This is probably just the owner of the local place I worked being cheap, but the comfort suites hotel I worked at for a while didn't even stock sanatizer tablets for dish washing. I didn't even realize it, until the health inspector came in one day and asked me where they were. I hate to think I may have spread something. D:
