It's kind of like riding in an old-fashined pneumatic mailing tube - only a LOT of work! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gAlzYLcqsTU

I don't get it.... I'm supposed to stuff myself into a flying sausage for 20+ hours to get to NZ and then I'm supposed to have "fun" working my butt off??? N-O-T

I've never understood the concept of "a working vacation".

Working vaction is an oxymoron like jumbo shrimp, military intelegence or effective government.
