My company is cool.
Boss walks in, says, "here are those cables. Oh, would you be interested in an overnight to London?"
"What?" I say.
"Mark needs a courier to london, he asked me if I wanted to do it but I'd have to bring my wife. You'd fly out tonight, drop off whatever tomorrow morning and fly back tomorrow. you could probably convince him to let you stay another day."
"Um, I could probably do that"
of course as I'm typing this he walks back in and says, "Turns out they don't need it there until sunday, so a regular courier service will work, sorry".
But it was there man, I was almost an international business man... sort of.
