Another time she went to work, putzed around in the ramp office, and then they couldn't find her for the flight. Turned out she'd brain-farted and gone home, thinking she'd just FINISHED a flight.

Unless he quit within the last year, ATA has one that's 79 or 80. I first flew with him when he was a youngster, just 75.
