I've seen so many to name just one. Here's the worse I've seen. So, PCB are highly toxic, highly carcinogenic stuff used mainly as coolant in power transformers. Heavy industries often have their own transformers, usually on the roof of their building. When these transformers get old, they need to be replaced, and the PCB need to be destroyed properly. However, doing this properly is very costly. So, a solution is to wait for a rainy day, then pour the PCB in the gutters on the roof of the heavy industry's building (where the power transformers typically are). This way they disperse on the ground and noone is the wiser. Well, since then, laws were changed to make sure that all power transformers are labelled and tracked by the government, to ensure their proper disposal. Still, sometimes a few older units get overlooked. And this is how I learned of this trick... the heavy industry's building is in the middle of a large city, with kids playing nearby and all.

Getting a lot more common in my industry is hiring 'interns' all the time. After their few months of 'training' they get replaced by next batch. With the shortage of jobs and need for experience, many people fresh out of college will happily work for free to gain experience.

A company having a business model that relies on charging fees for breaking its own rules without justification for them. Looking at you CreditOne. Has a late payment fee but refuses to add any kind of auto-payment. In 2017. Takes 5 days to clear a normal payment. Pay 4 days before your bill is due? That's a late payment fee. Want your payment to clear earlier to avoid that fee? Pay an express payment fee! Its the same fee amount? Lordy! What a coincidence!

Some degree of false advertising. My food never looks like it does on the menu. My internet is never as fast as advertised. The contractor never finishes when he says he will.

"Posting a job listed as "entry level" and then in the description it says 3 to 5 years of experience required. Bonus points for the tech industry, listing a job that requires more years of experience than the tech has even existed. "

Car salesman. Almost no other product has someone who makes money selling you a product you already want. That the price for the product is negotiable. Some people can haggle a few thousand off the price while little old ladies get taken for as much as possible. And that there are laws requiring you to buy them through dealers instead of direct from the manufacturer if you know what you want.

"Not hiring people that are "over qualified". Sorry that I've got years of experience and bills to pay, my bad. Hire some dumb shit instead, go for it. Stress yourself out, lose all your hair, bitch about "I hate this job", whatever. Be proud of that shitty paying job, be the king of your own little hill, go for it. Meanwhile, some people just want a fucking job where they can work their way up. Pretty much everyone promotes from within, I think they just want that promotion for themselves and are afraid to bring people in that actually can do the job better. "
