Off duty

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Engaging Manager, 2012, pp 123-125 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract There are many horrors associated with flying economy, especially long-haul. The lack of space, the food, the queues. But surely the worst is the proximity to strangers. To endure 12 hours sitting mere inches away from a garrulous airhead, a weepy drunk, a mewling and puking infant. The nightmare of one of those middle seats is having unknown people on either side.
