Turns out our flight attendant actually went into the bathroom, changed into her street clothes, and walked right off the job. I hope it's true, I love that story.
I held a flight for 10 minutes to get 15+ connections. I informed the crew that they were on a short hold. Captain got on Exceptions and said "That's fine, I quit!" He then packed up his bags and walked off the airplane.
Funniest part was when I called scheduling and Mansool (or however he spelled his African name) answered and said "No, we out of captains. Tell him he must fly flight"
