Summer Monday mornings and the new crop of consultants with shiny MBAs are taking to the skies to inflict PowerPoint presentations on the economy. Most know to not clean out the bar (at least on flights before 9 am) but what’s the best way for them to blend up front?
Computers in first class are for solitaire so pounding away at spreadsheets is a giveaway. Falling asleep before takeoff and dismissing breakfast is a pro move but not easy for those who are wired.
