He’s known to be one of the best bosses in the world – and Richard Branson has proved just that!
A Virgin Australia flight attendant from the company’s Sydney office was found sleeping on the job by the founder himself after the young man dozed off while being on stand-by for a flight.
A selfie, snapped by Richard, captures the flight attendant snoozing on a red couch, name badge attached, as he’s completely unaware his grinning boss is posing beside him. Members of staff are seen having a chuckle in the background.
Richard took the surprise sighting extremely well! ‘I popped into the office and the airport to say hello and check in to see what the team are up to,’ he said. ‘This guy wasn’t up to much at all – I caught him sleeping on the job! Wow, did he get a shock when I woke him up.
‘He must have thought he was dreaming because he went straight back to sleep. To be fair, he was on standby, getting some much needed rest.’
