Good point Panza. If you threaten someone JUNIOR to you that's OK. If you do something a lot less aggressive to someone SENIOR watch out.
Was DT sober? What time was it? Any witnesses? Is it just DT against the 'thrower'?
Why can't it be said that it was an unfortunate 'accident'?
Take it to court - DT won't want to see his name in the SCMP "sitting in a bar late at night chatting to his pet hostey when one of the grossly overpaid pilots drops a bag of peanuts on him - an offence for which the said pilot was subsequently fired..."
Makes him look like a bit of a prat too.
Come on Ken - you can't agree with this can you??
Sorry - course you can - just keep quiet and say yessir boss.....
