Here's a good one from today. Flying with a chap who just finished his transition course and was now online. He was feeling pretty good so he thought he'd ring to encourage a chap who had come to the same EK interview as he had but had bombed abysmally, primarily in the group exercise. It was clear to everyone that was in the room that he was a true n0-hoper.
Having made contact with the chap he found that the individual was over the moon. Emirates had called! They had made a mistake! He's actually a perfectly good candidate! Can he start this month! Please?!
If you are a captain, this should rank amongst your worst nightmares.
