20+ eye-opening industry secrets: 'Job requirements are more of a wish-list situation'

The best part of having friends in different industries is that they can share knowledge with you that most folks are completely unaware of…

This can be useful whether or not you have an interest in that particular industry. For instance, based on these responses in this Reddit thread, I surprisingly learned information about refrigerator models that I will take with me the next time I need one. Sharing industry secrets can be more of a selfless act than a shady one. If there are simpler solutions for customers that would result in saving money, perhaps it's not a good idea to let your boss know that you're sharing those tricks of the trade but perhaps one's moral obligation is to share said secrets so that people can potentially save a buck. 

Keep scrolling below for this brand new collection of industry secrets. When you're done, check out this post about an employee who stood up to his boss regarding outside work events.
