59 Industry Secrets That Are Known To Everyone Working In The Field

There are things about every profession that the general public doesn’t know. For example, many retailers charge markups so high that we'd probably riot if we knew how much. In the clothing sector, markups can be as high as 100% or even 350% for shoes — even 500%. But the eyewear industry is where it’s really at, as markups on eyeglasses often reach 800% and even 1000%.

Similarly, many other industries and sectors have similar secrets, ones that we’re maybe better off not knowing. Still, people deserve to know, and, in an attempt at bringing transparency, one netizen recently asked others to share the secrets from their professions: “What is an open secret in your industry that the general public would be absolutely horrified to know?” they wrote in a post online. Scroll down and see the truth that surgeons, ranchers, legal experts, and many more don’t want you to know.
