If you're working for a member of the royal family, you should be "seen and not heard".
Staff should perform their duties with subtlety and dignity, and never interrupt down time for the busy royals.
Royal staff members should never vacuum before 10am to avoid waking Prince Philip, and employees must walk down the sides of corridors to avoid wearing the carpet in the middle, the Social Gazette reveals.
Insiders claim it takes one full hour to iron a single bed sheet for Queen Elizabeth, and an additional 20 minutes to make her bed!
The Royal Standard flag must always fly at full mast when the Queen is at home in Buckingham Palace, and is only replaced by the British Union Jack when Her Majesty is on royal tour overseas or spending time at her favourite residence of Balmoral Castle.
Rumours have long persisted that working for the British royals is not exactly lucrative, and the Social Gazette's sources confirm the Palace doesn't pay very well.
A trainee butler in the royal household makes just $27,500 AUD a year.
The highest paid royal staff members are the Comptroller of the Lord Chamberlain's office, Master of the Household, the Queen's private secretary and Keeper of the Privy Purse.
But doing the bidding of future Kings of England and their children does come with its perks, the main one being that anyone working for the royal family gets fully paid room and board at the Palace.
In Buckingham Palace alone, there are 188 rooms reserved for servants.
But don't expect to entertain in your Palace quarters, because inside reports indicate maintaining a social life while on call for Prince Charles, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall or the Duchess of Cambridge is easier said than done.
Kate Middleton's aide quit after she got engaged so she could spend quality time with her fiancé and family, while a string of the Sussexes staff resigned without obvious reason.
The royals have notoriously high standards, especially when it comes to their children.
William and Kate's Spanish nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo is a graduate of Norland, the most exclusive nanny agency in the world, where she learned defensive driving, anti-terrorism coping mechanisms as well as general organisational duties, Social Gazette reports.
Only the best for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis!
Employees of the Crown must also dress to impress at all times - think suits and dress shoes for the boys and tailored skirts for the girls.
Bt despite the hefty rules and regulations, the royal family are loved by their staff and most are said to have a great sense of humour.
