Excuse me, what do you do for a living?
I sell jets.

Wait, are you Steve Bano?

Steve, I love this sign!

This is my trading floor.
This is where all the guys do all the research and sales.

We're calling every single owner of every jet in the world here.

Here, so this is our club room.
This is where we really have our quiet meetings, our conferences, our sales meetings, and sometimes do presentations.

We also have a secret door back there, so when we have two different people in the office that we don't want to see each other, or we have paparazzi following some of the potential clients, we can let them escape out of that door so nobody knows they're inside the office.

Okay, what's next?
Let's go in.

You usually have like a living area; there's a dining room which also could be used as a boardroom.
