Plus an allocated parking space outside FZHQ . . .
This reminds me of the father of a friend of mine. He was a legend Boeing guy. He once went to an interview for a 767 gig at Gatwick years ago. He'd been invited by the Chief Pilot...the interview a formality. Upon arrival, he was told that there was an HR lady who had to speak to him during the interview. As she started asking questions....he stood up, put on his jacket and said "I'm a pilot...you're not....and I don't answer stupid fu**ing questions!".
He got a call 2 days later, from the CP "Ah...John....could you start on Monday?!" LMFAO ROFL
