Since the 19th century. Because the Préfecture in Paris was built on the site of a chicken market, is what I've heard.

Is having to be positive at work really a bridge too far from some people? I mean, I wouldn't want a doctor that got so grossed out he was dry heaving when treating me, or a firefighter extinguishing my house and getting angry because he thought I set it off on purpose. I don't think its unreasonable to expect a certain level of professionalism from a job that I presume is hiring adults.

Please maintain your smile at all times as this customer hurls insult after insult at you because you don't sell cat food at the hardware store you work in. They've been to many hardware stores before that sold cat food and thus you must also sell it somewhere, so the reason you are saying that you don't have any is because you're either a piece of poo poo idiot moron who huffs his own farts, or you're maliciously doing this to spite this customer because you hate them and are trying to ruin their day on purpose. Probably both! Your manager will eventually come by and give this person a discount, and then spend another five minutes berating you for your rudeness. Slap that smile back on, champ! You're only fifteen minutes into your shift!

poo poo pay, racist dress codes, etc yeah I agree with most of that. But acting professional is just a part of being a mature adult and complaining about it feels like complaining about having to blink so your eyeballs dont dry out.

The big issue is "you must be 100% positive and smiling at absolutely all times." The standards are impossibly high and they expect you to be totally fresh faced and not the least bit unhappy even if you've been working for 14 hours and are dead rear end tired. In a lot of cases it's really just an excuse to write up an employee so you can give them a lovely raise or just plain fire them. It doesn't matter that you were tired and frustrated then had to deal with a customer that was shouting slurs at you, you stopped smiling for five seconds then snapped at them, the customer complained, and now that counts against you. You really are expected to not even be human anymore.

Bit of an aside but it also has a fantastic series of audiobook adaptations. Not usually my thing but they have a radio play kind of quality to it and it’s a great listen: https://soundcloud.com/macaudio-2/all-creatures-great-and-small-by-james-herriot-chapter-1

what really set those books apart from similar yorkshire literature is that herriot was doing it in the veterinary context

On the off chance you're being sincere, it chops off heads so the guy puts a picture of a man whose head isn't attached to his body, it also looks like the common sign for a men's restroom.
