WELL WELL SAID! Example: The Dutch just spent $8,000 in airfare alone to have me on-site for 9 days.... because no one else wanted to work longer hours in December. Crazy. Same $$ gets spent the 1st week in Jan when I come back.

Personally, I would rather fly coach and capture all the Business Class cash myself working more billable hours.
