To give you a perspective, I dealt with an airline in Bahrain when I was with Boeing. When their tech rep was visiting us, he got a fax from his boss that said "While you're over there, nip across to New York to talk to TWA about leasing another of their airplanes". His response was "Why don't you "nip across", you're closer to New York than I am".
Let's see, New York to Bahrain is 6,609 miles and New York to Seattle is 2,405. Please tell me the tech rep was reprimanded by his boss for being 1) wrong and 2) insubordinate to his boss. He could have easily stopped in NYC on his way home.
