I had a guy working for me a few years ago I used to buy him 2-$10 a peice cigars every day.
 He thought that was great and that  I was a great boss for doing so.

What he didnt know is I didnt buy them simply for him to enjoy.
I bought them for him because I couldnt take the godawful stench the Elcheapo cigars  he normally bought for himself used to give off LOL

Cigars smell bad enough.
Cheap Cigars about make you want to puke

Besides the usual benefits, working at an airline I am in position that I can schedule and go use one of the company simulators whenever I want.

I have been around the world a bunch, always in first class.  Domestic trips normally coach now, but international I have always gotten first.

A pilot for one of our code-share partners in Austria took me for an aerobatic glider ride in the Alps, above Innsbruck.

In the last year I have taken my wife with me on company trips to Phoenix in the winter, to Amsterdam last may, and Rome last summer.  (my son came to Rome too).

This job has had some cool benefits.

Oops, forgot.  My job perks:

On Fridays they bring in donuts for everyone.  Free donuts.  I'd work for no pay for free donuts.  Serious, man, donuts rule!

lol, I could name quite a few more perks about the Navy. But I dont want to make the rest of the Armed Forces feel bad.


My rate allows me to fix/build the fastest and most kickass aircraft in the world. And get paid to do it. :aok
