    A former colleague of mine was travelling on business to San Fransisco but, as company policy dictated, he was given an Economy ticket. At check-in he got an automatic upgrade to Business Class, probably due to Economy being full. During the flight, he struck up a conversation with the passenger next to him but upon mentioning that he had been upgraded from Economy, the other guy clammed up and wouldn't speak to him for the remainder of the flight (10+ hours).

    I can't even blag a boiled sweet off the tight ar5es on the descent, so an upgrade from cattle class would be near impossible.

    I bought an nice leather jacket from a charity shop in Vancouver, the small logo on it was of a famous bank, I was wearing it when I was checking in to return home, I noticed two or three staff looking at me and chatting to each other,,,I was puzzled until one came over and said 'I see the first class was full for your company yet again!!, let me see what I can do',,,...she came back and said she had pulled a few strings and got me in first class!!...Of course, I was far too polite to tell them I was a taxi driver working in York really !!LOL
