NordsFan, funny, I just assumed that a lounge employee would be older! I guess I'm thinking of the AC employees at the desk.

Saw Carlos Santana on a YYC-DEN (UA) flight... Was weird when this group of 10 people boarded before any announcements (caused a big lineup for everyone else thinking they could board at gate B20 - blocking access to the rest of the gates!)

She was the worst broadcaster I've ever seen when working as a neophite in YSB.
