Of course the client doesn't pay for flights. I add the cost of the flights to my invoice. And a bit extra for the admin involved. And VAT.

It took me 1 hour to get from one flight to another through SF, with no dawdling.

Epic FAIL.

Ahh, that's niceOriginally posted by MarillionFan View PostWell of course she did. Which is why she came up to the airport instead with the kids to say hello and offer to drive to me to the car park I left it in.

but its very much a variation on a theme. It was only a few months ago we had arrive at the wrong airport and miss flight story.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostOh I don't know. There was plenty of action and the suspense seemed to build up nicely, although the ending was a slight disappointment. Would have been funnier if MF had run up the gangway just as the plane doors slammed shut, and he missed the flight.
I once gave a friend a lift to Gatwick, where he had a flight booked. Or so he thought, until the check in lady pointed out that the ticket said Stansted! Cue mad dash back up the M23, round the M25, and up the M11 at 100 MPH much of the way. (Luckily it wasn't the rush hour.) And like MF, the guy just caught his plane by a matter of seconds.
I mean would you employ anyone in a senior position who gets the basics wrong so often.....
