A few years ago we got stuck AOG downroute in the middle of the night. Were told nobody to unload the bags until the morning shift came on a few hrs later. I didn't go as far as to unload 150 odd bags but I did go down and grab the 4/5 strollers that were in the front of the fwd hold. Luckily if you're young enough, which I was at the time, vaulting oneself up into the fwd hold of a 737 is just about possible without any external assistance. God knows what would've happened though if it had all gone pear shaped, something I didn't really think of at the time! Of course it was well appreciated and if nothing else has given me a good example of 'going the extra mile' at 2 subsequent successful job interviews - albeit with the caveat that in hindsight perhaps I was a little too keen at the time
