Yeh, I know the last flight out of the day with a relatively short connection is a risk, but I needed to allow myself maximum time to complete a job in Halifax. Should have just done like I've done previously and stayed in Halifax for an extra night with a Saturday morning departure. But, I'm more concerned about the general cluelessness that characterized the experience from the gate assignment, to when/where the bag was going to appear, to gate agents not knowing about the late connecting passengers.
