Grandfather tears on news of AC's newest FA
A nice change from the usual, a 91 year old grandfather, exAC employee, tears up hearing granddaughter gets a job there:

She's probably going to be working for rouge since mainline has a surplus of FAs at the moment and rouge had (still has?) a hiring campaign recently.

Unless she has a language qualification other than BL, she'll most likely get the reserve blocks.

Also, your comment could be seen as being a little creepy. Just sayin'

Yeah, and even Rob Ford knew there was certain kinds of remarks that should be self-censored when there are ladies present (as there are on FT).

You're obviously referring to the audio in this segment (2:49) of the video, right?

I think other readers thought you had something else in mind.

Can someone help us watch the video again and see if she is displaying any overt markings (e.g. ring) to hint at her ..... availability?
