Re the car valet..there was an article in SMH a few weeks back giving secrets of car valets written by one. Apparently, the real perks or high points of the job is to rev the sh*t out of prestige & high performance cars eg. hit what max speed down the ramp and pull up just before hitting the brick wall!!! Where else could you get your jollies thrashing Porches and other exotic and souped up machines? After reading the article, I vowed never to hand over the keys to these guys, ever.
