A 2024 survey by PwC found that the gap in consumer trust in companies continues to grow.
According to the results, while 90% of business executives think customers highly trust their companies, in reality, only 30% of them actually do.
That 60 percent difference is greater than the 57 points in previous PwC surveys in 2023 and 2022.
Part of the explanation for these numbers might be the fact that people nowadays demand higher transparency and accountability from companies, which many just cannot provide.
This is evident in a recent Reddit thread kickstarted by platform user Ferro_Roux. They asked workers to share the secrets and hacks they've learned about industries after starting to work in them, and folks had plenty!

Good audio engineers will have faders/knobs that don't do anything.
When the talent asks for a change that's goofy or makes no sense, we'll adjust that phantom knob and watch them nod their head in approval of their amazing idea.

Lean into the bite.
I work in pediatrics and we’re re taught that if a child bites you, lean into it (push whatever part of you they’re biting further into their mouth) because their automatic reaction will be to open their mouth and the risk of them breaking your skin is greatly diminished.
