Rob Vigar, cycling to his job interview. // A dad-of-two cycled 55 kilometres for an interview and got the job. Parachute Regiment veteran Rob Vigar, 31, found himself at a loose end after quitting his job as a plastic welder on March 26, 2026 after feeling "underappreciated" - losing a company car in the process.
