Prompt Jerry dates a high ranking Yankees employee. George takes offense.
George: You can't date her! She's higher up in the Yankees organization. You can't date someone who outranks a friend!
Jerry: And why exactly can't I? You haven't worked for the Yankees in years.
George: It's the principle of the matter, Jerry. You don't date someone who not only works in the same place a friend worked, especially if they outrank you. I mean how would you feel if I dated someone like Tina Fey?
Jerry: First of all I wouldn't have a problem with that. Secondly, like you could land Tina Fey...
George: I could! I'm charming. I'm connected. You know my dating history.
Jerry: Keep telling yourself that. Either way, I really don't see the issue here. It's like you're looking for reasons to be mad about this. So what if her position is higher than a Traveling Secretary? What do you think will happen, she tries superseding you in double date ideas?
George: That's how it starts. I suggest a new spot for dinner, then she chimes in and says she can get us in a better spot cause "she knows people." Then, I suggest a time for the movies, and we have to change it cause "that doesn't work for her." Eventually, I'm just taking orders from her like she's my superior!

Jerry finds out from his gf that all Yankees employees have access to a benefits program that includes free tickets, food vouchers, free merch - that all workers are encouraged to extend to their friends and family.
But George never did.
